Rolex Submariner, ref. 16610 – circa 1997 (U-series) A classic and highly sought-after Rolex Submariner from the final generation before the introduction of the ceramic bezel. This reference 16610 embodies the essence of Rolex design – balanced proportions, tool-watch durability, and timeless style. The 40 mm stainless steel case features a black dial, rotating bezel and sapphire crystal. This particular example stands out with its beautifully faded bezel insert, adding a unique vintage character. Powered by the automatic Rolex Cal. 3135, a reliable and precise movement that has become a benchmark in mechanical watchmaking. An excellent example of a pre-ceramic Submariner that perfectly bridges vintage appeal and modern performance. Comes with boxes, papers and calendar card.
