Here it planted its flag somewhere stranger and more beautiful — the barrel of a North Shore wave. As Official Timepiece of International Professional Surfing, the crown melded man and wave in the pent-up energy of the Pipeline and the break at Off The Wall, then floated a Submariner-Date exactly where the surfboard should be. The watch shown is the coveted \"Red\" Submariner ref. 1680 — that single line of red text is the detail collectors chase for a lifetime. Pressure-proof to 660 feet, priced at $660: a wink only Rolex could get away with.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis is an authentic vintage print advertisement — not a reproduction — preserved and archival-housed exactly as it ran.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eAn odd couple that made perfect sense, and one of the hardest Rolex ads in existence to find.
