A superlative example, the present watch is one of probably only a handful of Red Submariners delivered to the Peruvian Air Force that still retains its original guarantee and presentation box. While it is commonly known that the Peruvian Air Force ordered a number of Cosmograph Daytonas during the 1970s, they had also requested an exceedingly small number of Submariners during this period.

Its state of preservation is absolutely remarkable. Displaying thick bevels, crisp edges and sharp engravings, the present watch is a marvel indeed. The caseback, like all "FAP" watches displays "Fuerza Aérea del Perú" as well as the three digit code "104" on the bottom. Most of these three digit numbers have been rubbed out with general wear, yet this one remains evident. It is interesting to note that there is a small hole on the outer case back, near the "teeth". This hole was used to secure the case back when Rolex stamped the markings. Furthermore, the inside case back is stamped with a repeated inside case back number, another sign of a special order watch.

The dial is also preserved in excellent and extremely attractive condition. The luminous dots have aged evenly with the hands, and now display warm patina. Furthermore, all the graphics remain intact and vivid.

While it is an incredibly rare opportunity to handle such a distinguished timepiece, it's even more extraordinary to have the opportunity to acquire one.
