A bookish, introspective, and quietly tortured scientist by day, transformed by rage and magic into a muscled, scantily clad, and verdant partner of the Avengers, the Incredible Hulk lends his trademark green skin to the nickname for Rolex’s reference 116610LV “Hulk.” The watch collecting community once again selected an apt nickname for such a bombastic offering.

As the successor to the anniversary Submariner reference 16610LV nicknamed “the Kermit”, which had a bright green metal bezel, Rolex updated the 116610LV with their signature Cerachrom bezel in green paired with a sunburst “green gold” dial as a fitting successor. First released in 2010, the update included broader lugs and Rolex’s Glidelock bracelet clasp for ease of adjustment as well. The “Hulk” was discontinued in 2020, and a further successor introduced in 2021 – nicknamed the “Starbucks” or “Cermit” with the same green Cerachrom bezel, but now with a black dial and updated 41mm case.

Now highly sought-after by collectors around the world, this example of the Submariner Hulk is a rare opportunity to own one of Rolex’s most coveted modern wristwatches. Consigned by the original owner, it is further accompanied by its original suite of accessories for the most demanding of collectors.
