Owner Review: Rolex Submariner 16610 M Series by @omar_luxury_
The Rolex Submariner is probably the most iconic watch of all time, to the point it is ubiquitous. From experienced collectors who have Comex 5514s to people who just want a quality watch, a Submariner is preferred by almost anybody, and are cornerstones to many collections. Though the design hasn’t changed significantly in more than…

Owner review: Rolex Submariner Ceramic 114060
The supercase, love it or hate it, is a fixture of the Rolex Submariner Ceramic 114060. Despite its chunky lugs there is much to love about this Rolex staple. I had always lusted after the Submariner for as long as I can remember. I was initially (like many) lukewarm towards the Rolex Submariner 114060 but…

Owner Review: Rolex Submariner 116610LN
When one thinks of Rolex, it is hard for the Submariner not to come to mind. There have been numerous versions of the Submariner over the years, and up for review today is my newly acquired 116610LN. The 116610LN was introduced in 2010, and was only recently discontinued and replaced by the newer, 41mm 126610LN…

Owner Review: Rolex Submariner 16800
As the title suggests this review may leave more than a few of you upset and scratching your heads. Looking at the photos, this neo vintage Rolex Submariner 16800 looks like any other sub on a NATO strap. However it’s the case that hides the distinct difference. I had it modified with solid spring bars…

Owner Review: Rolex Submariner 5512
Up for review is my vintage, 1967 Rolex Submariner 5512 with idiosyncratic, so-called “neat” dial. The pleasant name stuck based on the refined typography and high standard of execution, particularly in comparison to the early 5512 matte dial models. As a demanding watch owner, I selected a vintage Submariner primarily for its aesthetics and functionality.…

Owner Review: Rolex Submariner 14060, A Great Companion
One fateful night back in 2014 while watching ‘Live and let die’, I made the decision to buy a Rolex Submariner. As an avid scuba diver I have always been drawn to dive watches with a clean aesthetic that can be worn everyday. I settled on the Rolex Submariner 14060 manufactured in 1990 for the…

Owner Review: Rolex Submariner 16613 Serti
Rolex Submariner 16613 Serti (Gem-set) dial or also sometimes called the Sultan (Sovereign in Middle-East) dial submariner 16613- a stunning gem-set dial that can take you from day to night. The two-tone 18 carat gold, 8 diamond hour markers with 3 sapphire indexes breathes a sense of romance into an otherwise boring run of the…

Owner Review: Rolex Submariner Hulk 116610 LV
How did I find my way to the Rolex Submariner Hulk? Well when I first got into “nice watches” a few years ago, I was attracted to the aesthetics of dive watches. After hanging around watch forums for some time, I found out about the Rolex submariner and I immediately fell in love. I finally…

Owner Review: Tudor Submariner 79190 – Vintage meets modern
I get it. You’re looking for a vintage dive watch. They’re so hot right now. A transitional matte dial Submariner, that’d be sweet. You’ll probably find yourself looking at 1680s, maybe 16800s. Naturally, they look awesome. Then you look at the price. What if I told you that you could get all of that vintage…

Owner Review: Rolex Submariner Date 16610 – “pre-ceramic”
Before I get to the review of my Rolex Submariner Date 16610 pre-ceramic, I will give you a bit of the back story. It was whilst leafing through National Geographic magazines as a kid that made me get the Rolex bug – It seemed from the ads, that if you were an adventurer, explorer, sailor,…
