Original Vintage Watch Poster Rolex Submariner Switzerland
About the Item
Original Swiss Vintage Poster promoting Rolex' Submariner, reference 1680, created by Celestino Piatti, a very productive Swiss Graphic Designer (1922-2007) known for his charm and subtle humor, printed 1974 in Switzerland by Lichtdruck AG, Dielsdorf.
The first Submariner was presented in 1954 at the Baselworld (reference 6204 & 6205 – however, please don't ask why there were two numbers as I have no idea). It was the first consumer watch to be water resistant up to 100m and became not only soon a classic among sports watches, but rather the most famous and popular luxury sports watch ever.
This collectible original poster is in excellent condition: no tears, no folds, bold colors – extremely rare and especially in this condition a museum piece.
No matter if you are a collector of rare original posters or you are looking for a statement piece to decorate your place: This poster is an eye-catcher and satisfies both needs.
