But as so often happens, any objections were short-lived. Fairly soon after its arrival, the LV (standing for Lunette Verte, or green bezel) started attracting much more of the right kind of attention, with devotees learning to appreciate the eccentricities. It also had the definite whiff of a future classic, something that set collectors with one eye on future monetary gains to gravitate towards it.As it turned out, they were right. Just seven years after its introduction, the Kermit was withdrawn to make way for the ref. 116610LV. Now housed in the beefed-up Super Case, this new piece added a green dial to match the bezel, leading to it being known colloquially as the Hulk.A short run of an unusual edition of a true industry giant has seen prices for the Kermit far outstrip the equivalent classic black models, and should be set to only get higher with time. Definitely one to consider.This one is a real puzzler. There hasn’t been a black and red bezel GMT-Master (much better known as the ‘Coke’) since 2007. That was when the last reference to offer the option, the ref. 16710, was scrubbed from the lineup. This means that there has never been a Cerachrom example of this archetypal and hugely popular Rolex color scheme, which we originally saw debut on the very first of the GMT-Master II references way back in 1983, the ref. 16760 (nicknamed the ‘Fat Lady’).The red and black had enough of a distinction from the blue and red bezel pieces to warrant its place, and as we all know, the ‘Pepsi’ has been (and still is) a massive seller for the brand.
The case is fully made of black ceramic, it is a pioneering work Omega made in their Planet Ocean. The case is brushed, while the edge of lugs is polished, seeing the side, the case has a graceful arc shape. The bezel uses high grade black ceramic with silver engravings. The case back is see-through sapphire crystal, VS factory developed Omega-patented Naiad Lock system, you only need to rotate the case back a bit to lock it perfectly. Check the case back, there are unique engravings on three lugs.The dial is black, which is made of real ceramic Zr02, this is the high gloss black dial that is exact 1:1 imitation of original. The dial has a correct hand stack, hour markers and hands have silver edge and are applied with white lume material, the dial has two different lume colors, hour markers and hour hand will emit strong blue light, minute hand will emit strong green light in the dark. On the outer dial, there are 24-hour gmt markers, GMT hand in the center has an orange triangle mark that is also filled with luminescence. This Deep Black Planet Ocean is a GMT watch, if Omega makes a full ceramic Planet Ocean without GMT function, that will be very popular.
The Rolex Submariner has been a part of the Rolex catalog for well over 60 years. As expected, the famed dive watch has undergone plenty of design and mechanical enhancements over the past six decades, including the all-important timing bezel. Read on to discover all the different types of bezels of the Rolex Submariner.When Rolex debuted the Submariner in 1953, the stainless steel dive watch included a rotating bezel marked to 60 minutes to allow divers to track immersion times. The steel bezel turned both ways for simple timing adjusting, the edge of the bezel was knurled for easy gripping underwater, and the insert was fashioned from black aluminum.The printed 60-minute scale on the earlier versions included markings for every 5 minutes, alternating between batons and numerals. By the late 1950s, Rolex started to include hash marks for the first 15 minutes on the bezel followed by 5-minute markings.Around 1969, Rolex introduced the first yellow gold Submariner, the Submariner Date ref. 1680/8. Accordingly, the knurled rotating bezel was fashioned from 18k yellow gold. What’s more, the Rolex Submariner ref. 1680/8 now offered the choice of either a black or blue aluminum bezel insert and matching dial.
Date Sizes While the first sizes of the Datejust and the Date were 36mm and 34mm (respectively), Rolex did add more size options to both collections over the years. For instance, somewhat puzzlingly, Rolex has in the past produced the Lady-Datejust and the ladies’ Date with 26mm cases, and the mid-size Datejust and mid-size Date with 31mm case sizes. However, perhaps for greater clarity between the two models, Rolex has since discontinued all of the smaller Date versions and currently only makes the Date 34. Additionally, Rolex has also ceased making the Lady-Datejust 26, replacing it with the Lady-Datejust 28. Furthermore, over the course of the last decade, Rolex has also added larger options for the Datejust.Rolex Datejust SizesThe Rolex Datejust has always offered far more metal choices and different style options compared to the Rolex Date. Although there are some vintage and discontinued Date 34 models in solid gold and two-tone steel and gold, Rolex has now simplified the choices to just two: full stainless steel or stainless steel with a white gold fluted bezel, both of which have 34mm cases and are fitted with Oyster bracelets.

The two tone bracelet has a deployant clasp, when the clasp is folded, it looks like a big Tudor shield logo. If you are interested in buying the replica, please check its specification in the following.Movement: Swiss ETA 2824-2 Automatic, 25 Jewels, 28800bph, Nickle Plated Case: 41mm*14.8mm, 316L Stainless Steel, Uni-Directional Rotating Bezel Crystal: Domed Sapphire with Colorless AR Coating, Double Sided Dial: Black with Superlumed Hour Markers and Hands Bracelet: Two Tone, Steel and Yellow Gold Plated Water Resistant: 50m V10 Rolex Sea-Dweller DEEPSEA 116660 D-Blue Made with 904L Stainless Steel Unveiled by Noob(new updated 126660) The Sea-Dweller DEEPSEA 116660 is one of the best-selling replica Rolex watches in the past, since Noob firstly used 904L stainless steel on the Batman GMT and Submariner, DEEPSEA 116660 is not as popular as Noob’s other flagship products like Daytona V3, Submariner V10, etc. Now, Noob published the latest V10 edition of this replica Rolex D-Blue 116660, I think it will become hot again, many of you guys who bought this watch before may want to replace by this one that is made with 904L stainless steel.This is a big watch that is specially designed for robust guys, case diameter is up to 43mm, and almost 17.5mm thick, not many people are willing to choose D-Blue 116660 as their first watch because it is really too big. And due to the new 904L stainless steel material on case and bracelet, the watch feels heavier than before.Besides 904L stainless steel case material, another big change on this V10 DEEPSEA 116660 lies in the movement, which is changed to Super Clone 3235. In all previous versions, Noob used 3135 movement, this is a big progress they made on this watch.On the V10 edition of DEEPSEA Sea-Dweller D-Blue 116660, Noob also claimed that the ceramic material used on the bezel is upgraded, they said this ceramic is different from that of previous Noob Ceramic watches, this ceramic is imported, so I suppose that they have a special channel to get the ceramic material used in the real watch, so that they have the confidence to said the ceramic is Swiss quality.The gradient dial is classic, the upper half on top is blue, the lower half below is black, such dial color design exactly meets the main theme which this watch wants to represents – the challenge to deep sea. After being improved many times, the gradient dial color looks more natural now.The bracelet is made with 904L stainless steel that is fully brushed, the bracelet is long and does not suit people who have small wrist. This bracelet would be the best fit for such a big watch, other leather or nylon band, while I think is impossible to bear the heavy weight of the case. Inside the case, there is a clone 3235 machine, actually Noob has installed this machine in its previous Single Red Sea-Dweller 126600, the movement has all necessary information engraved on the plates and rotor in gold tone, Noob factory also offers another movement option for this watch, that is a clone ETA 2836.AR factory also makes this watch, I think it is the main competitor of Noob. AR has improved this replica three times, the latest edition is V3, it is also made with 904L stainless steel, while with better case and bracelet finish I think, the movement in ARF 116660 is a clone ETA 2824, while it is also a good movement choice.
