Rolex Submariner 16610 Year 2002

The Rolex Submariner Date ref. 16610 represents one of the most recognisable and versatile configurations in the history of the professional dive watch. Produced during an important transitional era for Rolex, it combines the classic proportions of the aluminium-bezel Submariner with the robustness and reliability that made the reference a benchmark for collectors worldwide.

This example dates to 2002 and belongs to the Y-serial production, placing it firmly among the final generations of the five-digit Submariner era. Its 40 mm steel case, black dial and matching black aluminium bezel preserve the unmistakable aesthetic that defined the modern Submariner for decades.

Powered by the Rolex automatic calibre 3135, the ref. 16610 offers the legendary combination of precision, durability and everyday usability. A true modern classic, increasingly appreciated by collectors for its balanced dimensions, lighter case architecture and unmistakably vintage-inspired character compared with later ceramic generations.
