Rolex Submariner Date 116619LB

The Rolex Submariner Date “Smurf” 116619LB (2014) is one of the boldest and most iconic modern Submariners ever produced. Crafted entirely in 18k white gold, this reference pairs a striking sunburst blue dial with a matching blue Cerachrom bezel — a combination that earned it the legendary nickname, “Smurf.”

Introduced in 2008 and discontinued in 2020, the 116619LB marked a major milestone as the first Submariner Date in solid white gold with a fully blue aesthetic. Its vibrant color profile delivers presence and personality, while the precious metal construction ensures unmistakable weight, exclusivity, and long-term collectability.

Powered by Rolex’s in-house Caliber 3135, this Submariner offers exceptional precision, durability, and reliability. The Chromalight display provides long-lasting blue luminescence, and the 40 mm Oyster case maintains the classic proportions that have defined the Submariner for decades.

For collectors seeking a precious metal sports model with undeniable wrist presence, the “Smurf” stands as a modern classic and a cornerstone investment piece in the Submariner lineage.

Why This Watch Matters

The 116619LB is no longer in production, making it increasingly desirable among collectors. Unlike stainless steel Submariners, this reference offers the heft and prestige of solid gold while maintaining the tool-watch DNA that defines the Submariner family.

With its discontinued status, full white-gold construction, and unmistakable blue aesthetic, the “Smurf” continues to attract strong demand in the secondary market — making it not only a statement piece, but a strategic acquisition for serious collectors.
