Rolex Submariner Date 126610LV-0002
The Rolex Submariner Date 126610LV-0002, also known as the “Starbucks MK2,” continues the legacy of one of the most recognizable diving watches in horology. First introduced in 1953, the Submariner has become synonymous with durability, precision, and understated prestige. This modern 41mm iteration retains the iconic aesthetic of its predecessors while presenting a bolder profile and refined proportions that embody both heritage and contemporary luxury.
Crafted in robust Oystersteel, the watch features a unidirectional rotating bezel fitted with a striking green Cerachrom insert. The bezel’s 60-minute graduated scale is deeply engraved and coated in platinum for lasting legibility. A sleek black dial provides the perfect backdrop for Chromalight hour markers and hands, which emit a long-lasting blue glow in darkness. The Cyclops lens magnifies the date window at three o’clock, ensuring clarity and balance. The Oyster bracelet, with its brushed and polished finishing, reinforces the watch’s sporty elegance while offering exceptional comfort.
At its heart, the Submariner Date is powered by Rolex’s Caliber 3235, a self-winding movement developed and manufactured entirely in-house. This advanced caliber incorporates the Chronergy escapement, Parachrom hairspring, and high-capacity mainspring barrel, providing a robust 70-hour power reserve. Waterproof to 300 meters, the watch is designed to meet the demanding conditions of deep-sea diving while remaining equally at home on land. With its combination of timeless design and technical innovation, the Submariner Date 126610LV-0002 represents the pinnacle of modern tool-watch engineering and enduring Rolex prestige.
