However, rather than being fitted with the same style of bracelet that is found on other Date watches of the same circa, the reference 15238 Date is fitted with a rivet-link Oyster bracelet in 18k gold. The watch itself is fairly modern, both inside and out; however, this style of bracelet was most commonly seen throughout the 1950s and 1960s, and was phased out long before the reference 15238 ever made its first appearance. The unique combination of modern and vintage aesthetics provided by the unusual presence of the rivet-link bracelet, helps to set the reference 15238 apart and make it unique; however it also makes the watch an excellent option for those in the market for a slightly smaller alternative to the Day-Date that is also still crafted entirely from solid 18k gold.
While bidirectional rotating bezels may be quicker for wearers to turn to the appropriate spot, as a dive bezel it’s not the best option. If the bezel gets accidentally knocked, this could cause divers to miscalculate how long they have been underwater. Therefore, a unidirectional bezel is more prudent because accidental knocks to the bezel can only result in overestimating immersion time – it’s far preferable to start ascending to the surface earlier or spend longer than necessary at a decompression stop.Rolex began equipping the Submariner with unidirectional bezels starting with the Submariner Date ref. 16800, which was introduced around 1979. The no-date Submariner model received a unidirectional bezel with the introduction of the Submariner ref. 14060 in 1990.Like the previous generation, the new unidirectional bezels included aluminum bezel inserts. In 1983, Rolex introduced the first two-tone Submariner model in the form of the Submariner Date ref. 16803, which sported a yellow gold knurled bezel with a black or blue aluminum insert. To celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Submariner in 2003, Rolex introduced the stainless steel Submariner Date ref. 16610LV with a green bezel insert.In 2008, Rolex introduced the first Submariner models equipped with unidirectional bezels featuring Cerachrom inserts. Cerachrom is Rolex’s proprietary ceramic alloy that is not only resistant to scratching but also to fading. The 60-minute graduations are cut into the bezel and then the ceramic bezel insert is fully coated with either yellow gold (for yellow gold and two-tone models) or platinum (for white gold or steel models). The gold/platinum is then polished away from the ceramic surface until only the recessed numerals and markings are left with the metal filling.By 2012, Rolex had rolled out the Cerachrom bezels across all Submariner models and color options include black, blue, and green. A quick way to know the color of the bezel is to look at the letters in the reference number: LB (blue bezel), LN (black bezel), and LV (green bezel).
Arabic 3-6-9 hour markers and the reverse triangle mark are skeletonized, the disc on the bottom is applied white luminescence, so the four markers above will emit green light in dark place. Second hand features a round red dot.The Rolex Bamford Commando Submariner replica is equipped with an Asian clone ETA 2836-2 movement, which has 25 jewels and 28800bph. If you guys want to buy a genuine ETA model, I can ask the factory to install a real ETA 2836-2 movement for you Movement: Asian ETA 2836-2 Automatic, Nickel Plated Movement Plates, 25 Jewels, 28800BPH Case: 316L Stainless Steel, 40mm*13mm Bezel: Black Ceramic Bezel Insert Crystal: Sapphire Dial: Brown Sandwiched Band: Steel with Deployant Clasp Water Resistance: 30m Compared with other Submariners, I like 116610 LN more, because I think it is the most authentic Submariner Rolex has made, and indeed it has a high popularity among Rolex fans. Many people prefer steel black Submariner 116610 LN rather than these two tone and gold styles, but sometimes a luxury two tone Submariner is good for a certain group of people, they like the golden tone on the watch, so here I will introduce a good replica Rolex Submariner two tone watch, it is a perfect replica of Submariner 16613, the watch is made by BP, which is one of the factories that made the first batch of good quality replica Rolex.BP made this replica Submariner according to genuine watch 16610. Every Rolex replica made in the market is made by three major factories, they are BP, Noob and J12, these are good quality replicas. While the quality of these Rolex replicas made by other small factories can not be ensured. The 16613 replica here features a two tone appearance, it is made of 316L stainless steel, while its bezel, crown and the central links of bracelet are plated with yellow gold. The Submariner watch looks more luxury than others because of the yellow gold tone applied. Black bezel insert has golden markers engraved, the edge of the bezel is also plated with yellow gold. The whole case is brushed and solid case back has nothing. Streamlined case design looks great from the case side.Black dial is perfectly cloned, the dial design is also a great advantage of BP because it could make a Submariner dial that is closest to genuine.
