RolexSubmarinerModel No: 16610T-BLK-G1997A

The Submariner is one of the most acclaimed collections by Rolex, known for its impeccable reliability as a diver’s watch. Over the years, it has been graced with several updates and modifications, yet comparatively, it is the least changed model in Rolex’s repertoire. The reference 16610T was first introduced in 1987 and was in production till the 2000s.

Its stainless steel case measures 40mm, featuring brushed and polished finishes and well-proportioned heft. Thanks to the size and elegant appeal, the watch offers great wearability. On the clean, legible dial, we are welcomed by a stark black display featuring an orderly arrangement through luminous hour markers and the signature text in a contrasting white hue. The date window is tucked at its characteristic three o’clock position, and the bezel is unidirectional.

At Second Movement, the pre-owned division of Ethos Watches, we adhere to a rigorous verification process where expert watchmakers carefully inspect every watch to certify its authenticity, ensuring it is not counterfeit. We also go to the maximum extent possible to ensure that the timepiece is not a stolen property and that all duties are paid. However, in the absence of any central database, a 100% verification is unlikely for any pre-owned entity in India. Nevertheless, we can still provide a provenance guarantee for watches purchased from Ethos.
