The 16800 is a notable transitional model. Unlike the earlier 1680 model, it uses a sapphire crystal; while still having the matte dial. The movement was upgraded to the 3035 caliber a clear improvement over the slow beat 1575 caliber. The 16800 was made of 316 steel, like the earlier models, not the 904 grade that would follow.
