Rolex Submariner Date Yellow Gold Blue Dial Ref:116618LB 2020

*New Style Card*

The Rolex Submariner Date Yellow Gold Blue Dial Ref. 116618LB is one of the most luxurious iterations of Rolex’s legendary dive watch, combining professional-grade performance with the opulence of solid 18k yellow gold. Introduced in 2008 as part of Rolex’s “maxi case” Submariner generation, this model features a 40mm Oyster case, a striking sunburst blue dial with Chromalight luminescence, and a matching blue Cerachrom ceramic bezel insert that is virtually scratchproof and fade-resistant. It is powered by the robust Calibre 3135, a COSC-certified self-winding movement with a date complication, Parachrom hairspring for improved shock resistance, and a 48-hour power reserve. The watch offers 300 meters (1,000 feet) of water resistance, a unidirectional rotating bezel for dive timing, and the Glidelock clasp for fine adjustments over a wetsuit. Historically, the Submariner has been Rolex’s flagship professional dive watch since its introduction in 1953, but the 116618LB elevates it to a status symbol with its precious metal construction. Within the Rolex lineup, it represents the pinnacle of the Submariner range, appealing to collectors and enthusiasts who want the ruggedness of a tool watch paired with the prestige and visual impact of full yellow gold.
