Heritage Narrative
Few watches are as instantly recognizable as the Rolex Submariner. Since its debut in 1953, it has set the standard for professional dive watches, balancing rugged capability with timeless design. The reference 116610LN, introduced in 2010, brought a significant evolution with the introduction of a Cerachrom ceramic bezel insert, offering unparalleled resistance to scratches and fading. Combined with the Glidelock extension system, it became the definitive modern tool watch, equally at home underwater and in daily life.
This April 2019 example, reference 116610LN, features a 40 mm Oystersteel case, black dial with Chromalight luminescence, and the unidirectional black Cerachrom bezel. Powered by the automatic calibre 3135, it delivers chronometer-certified accuracy and a 48-hour power reserve. Offered in mint condition with its full set of box and papers, it represents a pristine example of one of Rolex’s most enduring and desirable models.
