Making its debut in 1953, the Submariner became one of the most popular and iconic series of the Rolex collection. To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Submariner, Rolex released the reference 16610LV in 2003. Fitted with a green bezel and black dial, this reference has been nicknamed the 'Kermit' by collectors.

  

Today, the Kermit has become one of the most desirable Submariner models for many Rolex aficionados. This example is presented in very good condition and retains its factory stickers.
