Rolex Submariner ‘Hulk’ 116610LV

The Rolex Submariner Date "Hulk" 116610LV is one of the most iconic and collectible modern Rolex sports watches ever produced. Introduced in 2010 to commemorate the Submariner collection's 50th anniversary evolution, the "Hulk" earned its nickname from its bold combination of a vibrant green sunburst dial and matching green Cerachrom ceramic bezel—a first for the Submariner line. Unlike the earlier 16610LV "Kermit," which paired a black dial with a green bezel, the Hulk embraced an all-green aesthetic that quickly became legendary among collectors. Its robust 40mm Oystersteel "Super Case," scratch-resistant ceramic bezel, Maxi dial with oversized Chromalight hour markers, and solid-link Oyster bracelet combine modern durability with unmistakable wrist presence, making it one of the most recognizable Rolex references ever produced.

At the heart of the 116610LV is Rolex's in-house Caliber 3135, a COSC-certified automatic movement renowned for its exceptional reliability, precision, and long-term durability. Featuring a Parachrom hairspring for enhanced resistance to shocks and magnetic fields, the movement delivers a 48-hour power reserve and the dependable performance that helped establish the Caliber 3135 as one of Rolex's most celebrated movements. Water resistant to 300 meters and equipped with the brand's Glidelock extension system for precise, tool-free bracelet adjustments, the Hulk is every bit the professional dive watch its heritage demands. Discontinued in 2020 and replaced by the larger 41mm Submariner Date 126610LV, the 116610LV has become one of the most sought-after modern Rolex references, prized for its unique colorway, limited production run, and enduring appeal among collectors worldwide.
