Icon5 Finally figured out what I have...now I can stop with the weird questions...maybe.

Ok so I've had a lot of the "what model is this...tell me about my watch" type of questions but I think I have maybe found what it is. I was thinking I had a 16613 but the problem is that its showing an "R" serial with a sale date of 6/17/87. Which just wasn't lining up to what I was reading a 16613 would be.

So I think what I have is a 16803 then? Doesn't say Swiss Made but says Swiss-T <25. Band number is 93153 and shows 401B between the lugs.

Is that what I have so I can finally move on? lol.

Ok there we go...the watch was fully serviced at a local AD about 10 years ago and seems to be keeping great time.

R serial is (summer) 1987. love the blue face :) but the reference number is spot on for the "smurf" sub date for 80s, 90s, and 00s. the "regular" black face/bezel is the 16800
the only thing i see "odd" is the bracelet number. "the rolex reports" shows that 16613 w/ 93253 not 93153, but otherwise looks right.
