About the Rolex Submariner
The Rolex Submariner is one of the most recognized and enduring dive watches ever made, introduced in the 1950s and refined continuously over the following decades into the collector staple it is today. The 40 mm case size defined the Submariner for generations, housing Rolex's in-house automatic movements inside a case and bracelet built to professional diving standards. References such as the steel 16610 represent the long-running no-date era that ended with the launch of the ref. 116610, while two-tone references like the 16613 pair stainless steel cases and Oyster bracelets with 18k yellow gold bezels and crowns, and fully gold references like the 116618LB and the vintage serti-dialed 16808 sit at the top of the Submariner hierarchy. The blue dial and bezel combination, offered across steel, two-tone, and gold variants, is among the most requested configurations on the pre-owned market.
What to Look For
When shopping used Rolex Submariner references in this collection, pay close attention to the reference number and dial configuration, as details such as a serti diamond-set bezel on the 16808, a sapphire crystal versus acrylic, and the presence or absence of a date function meaningfully affect both character and value. Condition of the bezel insert, bracelet stretch, and originality of the dial are the primary value drivers for pre-owned Submariners, with unpolished cases and matching-serial components commanding the strongest premiums among collectors.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the Rolex Submariner 16610 and the 16613?
The ref. 16610 is a stainless steel Submariner with a black dial and bezel, representing the pure sport configuration of the date model. The ref. 16613 is a two-tone Rolesor version that combines a stainless steel case and bracelet with 18k yellow gold accents including the bezel, crown, and bracelet center links, and is available with a blue dial and bezel.
Are these used Rolex Submariner watches authenticated?
Yes, every used Rolex Submariner for sale at Bizak and Co. is authenticated before listing and is ready to ship. Our team inspects each reference for dial originality, movement integrity, and overall condition so buyers can purchase with confidence.
What makes the all-gold Rolex Submariner references like the 116618LB more valuable?
Solid 18k yellow gold Submariner references carry a significant premium over steel or two-tone models because of the intrinsic value of the metal, the rarity of gold production runs relative to steel, and the prestige associated with wearing a fully gold Rolex dive watch. The 116618LB in particular, with its blue dial and blue ceramic bezel insert, is one of the most recognizable and desirable configurations in the gold Submariner lineup.
