The first ceramic bezel Submariner appeared in 2009 with the introduction of the steel and gold Rolex reference 116613. A stunning blend of classic and modern dive watch design, the ref. 116613 has since become a highly sought-after dive watch, both at retail and on the pre-owned Rolex market. Other metal variations of the ceramic (aka “Cerachrom”) bezel Submariner would later follow. However, none is as intriguing as the Rolex Submariner two-tone example.The Rolex Submariner was introduced to the market in the early 1950s and was the first timepiece in the brand’s catalog to offer water resistance up to 100 meters. This depth rating would eventually be increased to up to 300 meters, where it remains for the modern versions of the Submariner that are sold today. Other notable upgrades made to the line over the past six decades include improved materials (904L Oystersteel), longer-lasting lume (Chromalight), higher-beat Caliebr 3135 perpetual movements, tougher scratch-resistant sapphire crystals, and unidirectional rotating timing bezels.The Submariner was first offered in stainless steel, then in yellow gold. The first two-tone Submariner wasn’t released until 1984, with the reference 16803. This take on Rolex’s famous professional diver introduced the line to a brand new level of collectors who sought a gold Rolex but didn’t have the budget for an all-gold timepiece. Fast forward to 2009 with the release of this article’s featured ref. 116613, a completely redesigned dive watch with an upgraded bracelet and case, a redesigned bezel fitted with a ceramic insert, and a larger display on the dial.The Rolex Submariner is a dive watch legend. From its many appearances in the James Bond franchise to gracing the wrists of numerous A-list celebrities, the Submariner has become one of the most recognizable and coveted luxury watches in the world. The line is varied and offers options in either an all Oystersteel (904L stainless steel), Rolesor (two-tone steel and gold), or solid 18k gold. Today, we will compare two of the most iconic two-tone Rolex Submariner references – the Rolex 16613 and Rolex 116613.
The ref. 16710 is available on either a three-piece link Oyster bracelet or a five-piece link Jubilee bracelet with hollow center links and a folded metal clasp. Older references have hollow end-links and a standard clasp, while newer references have solid end-links and a clasp with an additional safety latch. The Jubilee bracelet is the exception and is only available on reference 16710 watches with hollow end-links and a standard fold-over clasp.The ref. 116710 is only produced on a three-link Oyster bracelet. As a newer variation of the GMT-Master II, the bracelet is equipped with solid end-links, solid center links, and a newer Oysterlock clasp with a 5mm Easylink comfort extension system. Many collectors prefer this example of the Oyster bracelet as the redesigned clasp allows the wearer to adjust the length without the use of tools as their wrist fluctuates in humid or hot weather.The GMT-Master II is an absolute legend, there’s no argument about it. What it comes down to when comparing the 16710 and the 116710 is personal taste. Do you prefer the classic styling of an older sports watch? Or do you prefer a contemporary timepiece that has all the latest and greatest technologies? Either way, the Rolex GMT-Master II is a must-have for any serious watch collection.
First, its size is 40.9mm×12.3mm, which can satisfy your requirement in sense of beauty. It is a little big with such diameter, and it is thinner than other normal wrist watch. Using such different size proportion really can give us special feeling in vision. And such unique style is almost revealed in every design details perfectly. Its case was made of solid 316L stainless steel, which is so delicate and bling in appearance. Combining with the scratch-proof sapphire crystal, it is so perfect collocation that has reflected its skillful craftsmanship fully. And also reflects the extraordinary temperament of wearer at the same time. Its dial uses black color, which can highlight its elegance and nobleness. What’s more, It’s markers are in golden, really a good matching with its black dial. It can be more lived with such decoration. Gold and black as main color in the whole, it reveals the style of gentleman. As we all known, In China, gold color means noble, which is only used for king in ancient age, and most of us still has this feeling now.
Just compared the dial lettering with real Submariner’s, there is no difference.Two tone bracelet has yellow gold on middle links. The brushing effect on bracelet gives you a high quality texture feeling. I have one thing to tell you here, it is about the clasp, check carefully, new Submariners from Rolex all have silver clasp engravings, not black on previous Submariner watches. So, see photos below, the clasp engravings on this Rolex Submariner 116613 replica is correct in color. Congrats Noob factory finally makes the right Submariners replicas, and we are also very lucky to own such a high quality replica Rolex. By the way, the replica is equipped with a real Swiss ETA 2836 movement, not clone.Now, everyone who bought Rolex Daytona Paul Newman watch from me before knows JK factory, it mainly produces replica watches of vintage Rolex and Panerai, but sometimes this factory also makes special watches like Pro Hunter, Bamford Submariners, etc. Take this Bamford Commando Rolex Submariner for example, genuine model is specially designed by Bamford company, it uses Submariner name, but has its own features. I like the style, it is military black, looks very tough, and the name “COMMANDO”, it exactly describes the tough style of the replica watch. The genuine watch claims 300m water resistance, while the replica has been tested by factory to be 30m waterproof.The case is brushed stainless steel, measured to be 40mm in case diameter, absolutely not including the crown. The case thickness is 13mm, black ceramic bezel insert with a red triangle at 12 o’clock. The bezel is diving style and uni-directional. Black diving scales on bezel form a high contrast with the white hour markers. Brown dial has some iconic features belonged to Submariner, such as the bezel-style hour and minute hands.
The case of this replica was made of solid 316 stainless steel. In order to be more harmonious as a whole, there are several key components have used this material. Such as its bracelet, has been polished based on stainless steel. And its crown, even its Arabic numeral markers and bar markers in the while dial. All of them are in concert with its main tone. The markers and hands have been coated by super luminous with different colors. Blue color was used in hour markers and hour hand. Green color was used in bezel and minute hand. Such considerate design can guarantee that you can read time clearly no matter in day or at night, and when diving in dark deep sea. You still can distinguish time information in shorter time. The date display window was set in the place of three o’clock. Considering of ocean such specific environment, this Omega Planet Ocean replica used superior quality to ensue practical function. Such as its bezel, except its unique character that was different from anther diving wrist watch which surrounding with numerals in bezel for chronograph. Its bezel inlaid diamond just with the motivation that showing the glamour of diamond and the craft of inlaying. In addition, it used white ceramic which can be tough enough to adjust the environment of deep sea.
The benefits of owning a diamond watch are clear. They’re elegant, timeless, and makes a bold impression. But how much will one set you back, exactly? That number can vary drastically, depending on the model of the watch, the shape and size of the diamonds, and the quantity used. For example, the premium for a round-cut diamond dial on the Daytona is roughly $2k more than the standard model, and the premium for a diamond dial topped with baguette-cut gems is more than three times that amount.If you’re in the market for a Datejust 36 with a diamond-set bezel, that will set you back about $7k over the standard model. Even more extraordinary is the diamond-paved dial on the iced-out Rolex Yacht-Master 40 ref. 126655 in Everose, which commands $20k over the standard Yacht-Master price. Depending on your preference, adding a diamond Rolex to your collection can either be relatively affordable or will require a serious, top-tier investment.Another interesting fact to consider when looking for a diamond Rolex for sale is that they will almost immediately depreciate in value once they hit the secondary market, although they will almost always be worth more than a non-diamond version of the same watch. If you’re shopping for a watch on the pre-owned Rolex market, then a diamond watch is a very attractive option to consider.You might find it surprising to learn that compared to the total number of Rolex watches produced, a small number were actually factory-set with diamonds. The rest are custom/aftermarket and vary significantly from the timepieces produced entirely by Rolex.For starters, Rolex has access to the highest quality diamonds and employs some of the industry’s most skilled gem setters. An aftermarket diamond Rolex rarely comes close to the same level of quality as an original diamond-set Rolex, both in regards to the diamond itself and the quality of its setting. An original factory-set diamond Rolex is rare and will also hold its value better than one with custom-set diamonds. In fact, many aftermarket watches are actually worth much less than they were before the diamonds were added, both because the diamonds are considered by many as a non-genuine component and because they can often cause functional issues for the watch. Rolex will even go as far as to require that the custom components be replaced with their factory-intended counterparts before they will agree to service the watch.Overall, diamond watches are a smartwatch to purchase, if you know where to look. In addition to the size and clarity of diamonds, how they are cut and set into the watches plays a huge role in bringing out their natural beauty. Therefore, its important to only buy genuine factory-set diamond Rolex watches, as these will use only the highest quality diamonds and other gemstones. A genuine example on the secondary market is a pretty sound investment and can add significant value to your watch box without the initial top-tier price tag.
In next year 2017, I think the factory will focus on releasing more new watches rather than continuously improving the old models, because I think such 116710 BLNR is already perfect, there are no places need to be improved, the last defect on the clasp has been corrected. If you are in pursuit of perfection, the only way to make the replica work more accurate is to install a genuine ETA movement for it, the factory offer clients such option if you can pay extra $80 usd for a genuine movement.The two big selling points of the replica lie in its bezel and function. First, the bezel uses real ceramic material, the blue and black color on bezel are real color of the ceramic, not painted, besides, the central blue hand with a big triangle is working in the same way like genuine, you can adjust GMT hand position through the crown. If you can replace with a genuine ETA movement and take good care of the replica in daily life, I mean, do not let it under water too often, it will serve you for 3-5 years. I am not cheating you, I have been in this area for years, I know how to modified these replicas to make them become stronger and realiable.Replica Rolex Explorer 216570 Watch with Clone 3187 MovementReplicating Rolex is the best job Noob factory has done, they have published a lot of good quality replica Rolex watches, including Submariner, GMT Master and Explorer, and they have always improved the details to continuously release the better versions of these watches.

On the dial at 12 o’clock, there is a FA Jones signaure in black, a small hand is showing current seconds on subdial at 6 o’clock. Central hour and minute hands are classic Breguet hands, which add a little retro flavor to the watch. Printed Arabic hour markers are in blue.Look at the manual winding movement through crystal back, each movement plate is carefully crafted, from polishing to chamfering, each detail is uncompromised.The leather band varies from brown, blue and black on different model.
