The Rolex Submariner is widely regarded as the world's most iconic dive watch, and in 2003, Rolex commemorated the 50th anniversary of this collection with the release of the reference 16610LV. This model is easily identifiable by its bright green aluminum bezel insert and is popularly known as the Rolex Submariner Kermit.

Introducing the Rolex Submariner Date 16610 'Kermit,' an iconic timepiece that marries classic design with modern precision. The Kermit Submariner 16610LV, produced between 2003 and 2010, is a 40mm dive watch made from stainless steel. It features a black Maxi dial with luminous hour markers and is equipped with Super-LumiNova for its luminous material. The watch has a unidirectional green aluminum bezel insert with a 60-minute scale, and its crystal is a flat sapphire with a Cyclops lens.

Powered by the Rolex Caliber 3135 movement, it offers water resistance up to 300 meters (1,000 feet). The Kermit Submariner 16610LV comes with a stainless steel Oyster bracelet. One of the most notable variations among the Rolex Submariner Kermit 16610LV watches is the Flat 4 bezel. This bezel insert was used exclusively on the earliest models produced in the initial years of the 16610LV's release. Afterward, Rolex made slight changes to the font, and the green Submariner bezel inserts that followed adopted the more contemporary Sharp 4 design.

This vintage timepiece is more than just a watch; it's a collector's dream. It comes complete with its original box and papers, as well as the original Rolex anchor and hang tag, underscoring its authenticity and value. The Submariner Date 16610 'Kermit' is a testament to Rolex's legacy of excellence, making it a coveted addition to any horological collection.
