Pre-owned Rolex Submariner Date Ref. 16610 (1997) played a pivotal role in the evolution of the modern Submariner, bridging the gap between vintage references and the ceramic-bezel generation that followed. As one of the last stainless steel Submariners to feature the classic aluminum bezel insert, it retains the timeless design collectors continue to admire. This reference showcases the iconic 40mm Oyster case, black aluminum dive bezel, and black dial with Luminova hour markers and hands, providing excellent legibility without the aging characteristics of tritium. Powered by the reliable Rolex caliber 3135 automatic movement, the Ref. 16610 is still one of the most versatile and collectible Submariner models ever produced. Shop Rolex Submariner Collection
