Rolex 116610 Submariner Date Black Ceramic Bezel SS Black Dial

The Rolex Submariner Reference 116610, debuting in 2010 and produced until 2020, holds a revered position in contemporary dive watch history. As an evolution of the iconic Submariner line, the 116610 introduced crucial upgrades including a 904L Oystersteel 40mm case and a scratch-resistant black Cerachrom ceramic bezel insert. The dial features the classic black colorway with Chromalight luminescent markers, a characteristic design language of the Submariner Date series. Powering this reference is the trusted Rolex Caliber 3135 automatic movement, famed for its exceptional robustness and chronometric performance, and featuring the date complication at 3 o’clock. The Oyster bracelet, also rendered in solid stainless steel, integrates the Glidelock clasp system—offering practical micro-adjustments for divers. Renowned for its water resistance up to 300 meters, the 116610 set modern standards for professional-grade dive watches, maintaining a direct lineage to the 1953 Submariner while implementing superior materials and engineering. This model is a cornerstone for any serious collecting of modern Rolex, highly sought-after for its blend of utilitarian virtue, discretion, and horological pedigree. Its enduring desirability is matched by its wearability, distinguishing it as a true benchmark within both vintage and contemporary dive watches. Excellent Condition with Rolex box and papers dated 2014.
