The Rolex Submariner 16610LV, also known as the Kermit, is a special edition watch that celebrates the 50th anniversary of the iconic Submariner model. Introduced in 2003, the Kermit features a distinctive green bezel that sets it apart from the standard black-bezeled Submariner 16610. The green bezel insert is made of aluminum and this particular example has a “B4” bezel, which means it has a pointed 4 in the 40 and a square 5 in the 50 on the insert as well as a more racing green colour. The 16610LV also has a black dial with larger hour markers and hands, known as the Maxi dial, which improves the readability and gives it a modern look. The Kermit was the first Submariner to have the Maxi dial, which is now a signature feature of Rolex’s sports watches.
The Kermit is powered by the Rolex 3135 automatic movement, which is renowned for its accuracy, reliability, and durability. The movement has a date function and a hacking feature, which allows the seconds hand to stop when the crown is pulled out. The movement also has a quickset date, which means the date can be adjusted independently of the time. The movement has a power reserve of 48 hours and is certified by the COSC (Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute) as a chronometer.
The Kermit has a 40mm Oyster case made of stainless steel, which is water-resistant to 300 meters/1000 feet. The case has a screw-down crown and a solid case back, which ensure the water-resistance and protect the movement. The case also has a sapphire crystal glass with an engraved LEC (Laser Etched Crown), which is a small Rolex logo at the 6 o’clock position that is visible properly under a magnifying glass.
This 16610LV comes with its original Rolex Oyster 93250 bracelet dated EO8, which is also made of stainless steel. The bracelet has a folding Oysterlock clasp with a safety catch and a Glidelock extension system, which allows the wearer to adjust the length of the bracelet without using any tools.
The Kermit is complete with its original Rolex wave box, card dated to 2008, booklets, and swing tags. The watch has been serviced by our watchmaker and comes with a 12-month warranty from Watts On Watches. The Kermit is a rare and collectible watch that combines the classic design of the Submariner with a touch of Rolex green. It is a perfect choice for Rolex enthusiasts and divers alike. Don’t miss this opportunity to own a piece of Rolex history.
