Submariner Date Kermit' M-Serial Roestvrij Staal 16610LV

Onze mening

Offered here is a stunning example of the Rolex Kermit Submariner 50th Anniversary Edition Reference 16610LV manufactured circa 2008.
This example has the correct Gloss Black with larger hour plots and wider hands for its Serial Number M886--- range. The 16610LV Kermit Submariner has become a truly impressive Neo Vintage iconic piece.

In 2008 the serial number moved to the rehaut ring with the Rolex engraving. The model number can also be found engraved between the lugs at 12.

LV in the reference 16610LV stands for “lunette verte”, which refers to the colour of the bezel (vert meaning green and lunette meaning bezel). It was subsequently given the nickname of KERMIT by Rolex collectors.

The 1660LV featured the new” Maxi dial”, which means that it has larger hour markers and fatter hands that improve the readability thanks to its enlarged applied indexes and fatter hands.

Rolex adds the letters at the end of the reference numbers on watches that have other variations (such as colour differences) to help differentiate between different models by their reference numbers. For example, during the production of the 1660LV, Rolex also made the 16610LN, which referred to the colour of the bezel is black.

The overall condition of this Kermit 1660LV is excellent. The case retains its strong symmetrical lugs and crown guards along with the brushed finish to the top edges and chamfers all remaining very well defined, the bezel and Green Kermit insert have no major dings or scratches and compliment the overall appearance of this special edition Submariner.

The sapphire glass is the flat type of profile inclusive of the Cyclops date window for this model, it is also free of any detrimental scratches.
The watch comes on the correct type of Rolex reference 93250 Oyster bracelet with solid end links. The bracelet is showing only light wear and minor stretch.
This anniversary Submariner is accompanied by all its original accessories inclusive of its original Rolex boxes, manuals, translation booklet, card/document holder and guarantee card.
