RolexSubmariner

After much anticipation from enthusiasts and collectors, Rolex updated its Submariner range in 2020 - introducing some case refinements and new movements. The ref. 126613LB we see here is a two-tone variant offered in stainless steel and 18K yellow gold. The 41mm case is slightly larger than its predecessor, but the revised lug profile and wider bracelet give the watch a more streamlined and seamless look. 18K yellow gold hands and markers are applied to the electric blue dial and filled with Rolex’s proprietary “Chromalight” luminescence. The trip-lock crown that delivers 300 metres of water resistance is also made of gold, as is the 120-click rotating bezel.

The Oyster bracelet features polished gold centre links, and the clasp integrates Rolex’s Glidelock extension system, providing the wearer with 15mm of tool-free adjustment. Powering the watch is the latest generation calibre 3235 movement which features a 70-hour power reservice, COSC certification, and is internally tested by Rolex to a tolerance of +2 to -2 seconds per day.

This 2021 example is presented in mint condition with some factory protective plastic stickers in place. Also included are the box, guarantee, booklet, swing tag, and bezel protector. Rolex’s five-year warranty provides cover until 2026.

All watches offered for sale are searched and cleared against The Watch Register database and a certificate is available to the winning bidder upon request.
