The Rolex Submariner has been the reference dive watch since its introduction in 1953, combining professional-grade water resistance with a design that has changed only incrementally across seven decades. The 116610LV, introduced in 2010 to mark the Submariner’s fiftieth anniversary, broke from that tradition with its vivid green dial and bezel — a departure bold enough to earn it the “Hulk” nickname almost immediately among collectors and dealers.

Powered by Rolex’s in-house Calibre 3135 automatic movement, the Hulk delivers the reliability the Submariner line is built on, backed by a Triplock screw-down crown and Rolex’s Superlative Chronometer certification. With production ending in 2020 after a ten-year run and no direct continuation of the exact green-on-green colourway, the 116610LV has become one of the more actively pursued discontinued references in the modern Rolex catalogue.

• Presentation Box: Original Rolex green hinged presentation box
• Papers: Rolex card holder and Submariner Date instruction booklet
• Authenticity: Full box and papers set, exactly as pictured

This watch is pre-owned and rated Condition 8/10, presented complete with its original box and papers exactly as pictured. Please note there is a slight indication of a mark on the dial.

RareFind rates this as a highly collectable modern Rolex reference. Production of the “Hulk” ceased in 2020 after a ten-year run, with no direct successor sharing its exact green-on-green colourway, making genuine examples increasingly difficult to find. As one of the most recognisable and actively pursued discontinued Submariner references, it remains a benchmark collector’s piece within modern Rolex sports watches. A distinctive, complete example worth securing.
