When Rolex marked fifty years of the Submariner in 2003, it chose not to redesign, but to introduce a single, striking flourish: green.
Since its debut in 1953, the Submariner had remained remarkably consistent, black bezel, black dial, and unwavering functionality. This is precisely why the reference 16610LV felt so significant, introducing for the first time a green bezel, a color long associated with the brand.
The model also debuted the “maxi dial,” with larger luminous markers and broader hands, enhancing both presence and legibility. Produced from 2003 to 2010, it occupies a key transitional position as the last aluminum-bezel Submariner and the first to embrace a more expressive design.
The present example, with “M” serial from 2007, is preserved in excellent condition and offered as a complete set. It represents a moment when Rolex allowed itself a measured boldness, creating one of the most beloved modern Submariners.
