Rolex is known for being in the pantheon of all-time great luxury watch manufacturers. Perhaps one of the most well-known and popular models in their line-up is the legendary Rolex Submariner. There’s much to love about Rolex Submariners. From their sporty design to their innovative features and functions, there’s a reason it tops many lists of avid watch collectors.
The term “Kermit” Rolex serves as an affectionate alias for a particular Submariner model, namely the reference 16610LV. Unveiled in 2003 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Submariner series, its distinctive green bezel paired with a black dial on a stainless steel casing and strap, gave rise to the endearing “Kermit” nickname, drawing inspiration from the iconic green Sesame Street character.
What sets the Kermit apart is its vibrant green bezel, a departure from the traditional black, complemented by a classic black dial. This distinctive green hue led to the affectionate nickname “Kermit,” a nod to the beloved green frog. The Rolex Kermit has become a coveted collector’s item, cherished not only for its association with the Submariner’s rich heritage but also for its unique and eye-catching aesthetic.
The green dial of the Kermit Rolex adds an element of individuality to the timepiece, making it instantly recognizable among Rolex enthusiasts. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, the Kermit maintains the Submariner’s renowned durability, water resistance, and precision, embodying the high standards for which Rolex is renowned.
These watches are a part of Rolex history, and investing in them now will mean you’ll be investing in a watch that will eventually be considered an antique Rolex model. This makes it a great buy for collectors. You get a beautiful watch that is sure to hold on to its value for years to come, likely increasing in value as well.
As many of these watches have been taken out of production, naturally the Kermit will come pre-owned. The BQ Watches team is pleased to use our experience and connections to source these styles and offer great options for both men and women.
If you’ve had your eye on a Kermit Rolex, now is the time to add one to your collection. It’s likely that these pieces will only get less affordable over time. Of course, Rolex can always do rereleases of fan favourite models, but that doesn’t make the original production runs any less special. Getting your hands on one of these special timepieces is truly exciting, and we’re happy to help you achieve it.
