This Rolex Submariner Date reference 16610LV, the Kermit, marked the Submariner's 50th anniversary with a configuration the line had not carried before. Its green "Flat 4" bezel insert is the detail collectors chase, and on this reference it is the feature that separates an anniversary watch from the standard 16610 beside it. The automatic movement carries a date, while the 40mm stainless steel case measures 12mm thick and keeps the balanced proportions that made the five-digit Submariner the long-lived modern standard. A black dial sharpens the contrast against that bezel and ties the watch back to the classic Submariner look it was built to update. As anniversary references go, few are as easy to place within a collection or as instantly legible in Rolex's development of the model.
