Rolex Submariner 116610LN with Green Ceramic Bezel

[Bobsolanki]

Hello Members,

I love the look of the 50th Anniversary Submariner 16610V. The new Submariner 116610LN has great features such as the glide lock clasp and the ceramic bezel. I was wondering If anyone has pieced together their 116610LN with the Green Bezel of the Hulk 116610LV. What are your opinions about this?

Yes, someone posted a picture of exactly this a while back. Looked pretty good actually.

Today with ceramic inserts costing from $375-$450 for the subs and that's if you could even source a genuine insert as no RSC or Rolex independent would fit one for you.And to properly [with minimal risk] to remove and refit ceramic inserts a very specific set of dies and jigs are required. If you do not have these tools and if you are not familiar with the changing procedure then do not attempt to remove or refit them its that simple, one of the many down sides of ceramic inserts.Its definitely not a DIY job like the aluminum inserts was and very costly if you make a mistake.

Agreed, you'd be better off swapping the entire bezel as opposed to just the ceramic insert.

Would love to have the green bezel on my sub c nodate.

It's easier to swap the dials than it is to swap bezel assemblies.

Found this pic, not my watch

Imo it looks better than the Hulk

I agree that swapping a black dial into a 116610LV would be the easiest. It should be noted though that the green dial in the 116610LV looks black half the time anyways. lol

It looks like the hulk with the dial showing to be quite dark. That is what makes the watch special. But could be my computer.

I never thought of swapping the dial vs the bezel. Definitely sounds easier and more cost effective. Cheers to your input, helps getting information before starting a Frankenstein project.

I don't know about that... that's not a green dial... maybe photoshopped

The LVC dial totally changes depending on the light which is something I personally love about the watch! I've had people look at my sub from a couple feet away and say "hey I like the green bezel and black dial".

Amazing how the dial changes shades with lighting. I guess some wrist time with the hulk will make the ultimate decision. Thanks for sharing!
