Rolex Submariner Date 16610 Black Dial Jan 1995

The Rolex Submariner Date ref. 16610 is a legendary dive watch that represents the epitome of professional sports watch design. Crafted in stainless steel with a 40mm case, this reference served as the cornerstone of Rolex's dive watch collection for over two decades, establishing itself as one of the most recognizable and respected timepieces in horological history.

This example features a classic black dial with luminous Mercedes hands and dot markers, delivering optimal legibility both above and below water. The deep black surface provides excellent contrast against the white luminous material, while the unidirectional rotating black aluminum bezel with its 60-minute timing scale remains an essential tool for dive timing. The date display at 3 o'clock, magnified by Rolex's signature Cyclops lens, adds practical functionality to this professional instrument.

At its heart beats the Rolex caliber 3135, a robust self-winding automatic movement that earned Superlative Chronometer certification for its exceptional precision and reliability. This movement features a 48-hour power reserve and has proven its durability through decades of professional use by divers, military personnel, and watch enthusiasts worldwide.

Fitted with the iconic Oyster bracelet featuring solid center links and a secure Oysterlok safety clasp, this Submariner offers both comfort and security during active use. Presented in excellent condition with 1995 papers, this 16610 represents the final era of aluminum bezel Submariner production, making it highly sought after by collectors who appreciate its classic proportions and vintage character.
