Rolex Submariner Date – Black Dial – 16610 – 1999

A timeless icon of modern dive-watch design, the Rolex Submariner Date 16610 remains one of the most recognizable and sought-after sports watches in the world. Produced in 1999, this edition represents the final era of the classic aluminum-bezel Submariners—favored by collectors for their lighter feel, vintage charm, and unmistakable Rolex DNA. The balance of rugged capability and understated luxury makes the 16610 a true everyday companion built for a lifetime of wear.

Crafted from Rolex’s corrosion-resistant 904L Oystersteel, the watch features a sharp black dial with luminous hour markers designed for maximum underwater readability. Its unidirectional aluminum bezel carries the warm, naturally evolving patina that enthusiasts deeply appreciate—something that modern ceramic models simply cannot replicate.

Powered by the Rolex Caliber 3135, one of the brand’s most celebrated automatic movements, the Submariner Date ensures reliable precision, durability, and smooth date functionality. With its classic 40mm Oyster case, iconic Oyster bracelet, and unmistakable profile, this 1999 reference represents the perfect intersection of old-school charm and modern Rolex engineering.
