In 2003, perfect replica Rolex marked the 50th anniversary of the Submariner by releasing the reference 16610LV. Rolex allowed its frivolous side to shine through by introducing a fourth-generation Sub with a green bezel, the house color of the Genevan brand. The cheap fake Rolex Submariner 16610 had the letters “LV” added to the reference number, meaning “Lunette Verte.” And because nearly every sports Rolex super clone online has a nickname, this celebratory Sub also got one — “Kermit.” It’s a nickname just as charming as the world-famous green host of an enormously popular variety show.
Apart from the funky bezel, the dial of the “Kermit” also showed another change. It was a “Maxi” dial with enlarged hour markers and hands. But apart from the aesthetic changes, the UK luxury replica Rolex Kermit is every inch a Sub. There’s the 40mm Oyster case in 904L stainless steel, the Triplock screw-down crown with guards, a solid screw-in case back, plus a flat sapphire crystal with a Cyclops on top to magnify the date below. Do I need to remind you that every 16610 Sub carries a 300m depth rating and measures 12.8mm thick, 47.6mm long, and 20mm between the lugs?
Why “Kermit”?
The nickname is spot on, but it’s not just the green aluminum bezel insert that inspired it. Have a good look at the large, round white indexes, and then think of the real Kermit’s eyes. You see? The aaa quality fake Rolex Submariner 16610LV has both the color and the eyes of Kermit!
As I wrote before, a slightly rattly cheap super clone Rolex of yesteryear puts a smile on my face. Yes, the current 126610 might be objectively better; the current caliber 3235 has a power reserve of 70 hours, for instance, while the previous caliber 3135 could “only” muster 48 hours. But this slightly bigger 41mm luxury tool watch, although incredibly impressive in terms of build quality, is also a very “serious” watch. Even the current LV, the Swiss movement replica Rolex that got the nickname “Starbucks,” is not as lighthearted and fun as the original LV, the 50th-anniversary Kermit.
The current Sub looks like it has a membership to the gym and goes there three to four times a week. The top copy Rolex Kermit, on the other hand, is just a lean and athletic creature by nature. It doesn’t try hard to look fit, it just does because of great genes. And that’s why the slightly rattly Kermit makes me smile broadly.
An aluminum bezel, on the other hand, is like the nonchalant look you have at the end of a glorious day at the beach. It’s a bit wild and ruffled but casually phenomenal. The current Subs are just too good to be true, and on top of that, they are, now more than ever, status symbols. In my opinion, the high quality fake Rolex 16610LV Kermit, no matter what subspecies, is the best and last of its kind. It’s fun, special, charismatic, lively, reliable, and so many other good things. Come to think of it, it’s everything you need from your partner…I mean “watch.”
