Heritage Narrative
The Rolex Submariner, introduced in 1953, has become one of the most iconic sports watches in history, revered for its robustness, functionality, and timeless design. In 2010, Rolex unveiled the Submariner Date 116610LV — affectionately nicknamed the “Hulk” — featuring a striking green sunburst dial paired with a green Cerachrom bezel. With its bold color scheme, ceramic insert, and refined case proportions, it quickly gained cult status among collectors as one of the most distinctive modern Submariners.
This January 2019 example, reference 116610LV, features a 40 mm Oystersteel case, unidirectional green ceramic bezel, and matching green dial with Chromalight luminescence. Powered by the calibre 3135, it delivers chronometer-certified precision, a 48-hour power reserve, and exceptional reliability. Offered in mint condition with its full set of box and papers, this piece represents a prime example of one of the most sought-after discontinued Submariner variants.
