Rolex Submariner Date – “Starbucks” Edition 126610LV 41mm (2021)

The Oyster Perpetual Submariner Date in Oystersteel with a Cerachrom bezel insert in green ceramic and a black dial with large luminescent hour markers.

A contemporary take on Rolex’s legendary diver, the Submariner Date ref. 126610LV—affectionately nicknamed the “Starbucks”—pairs a vibrant green Cerachrom bezel with a deep black dial for a bold, yet timeless aesthetic. Housed in a 41 mm Oystersteel case, this watch retains the Submariner’s rugged reputation while offering modern enhancements such as slimmer lugs and a larger bracelet for a sleeker profile on the wrist.  Powered by the in-house Rolex Caliber 3235 automatic movement, it delivers approximately 70 hours of power reserve and is COSC Superlative Chronometer certified. This movement also features a convenient instantaneous date change and a stop-seconds hack function for precise time setting.

True to its dive-watch lineage, the watch is water-resistant to 300 meters (1000 feet), thanks to its robust Oyster case construction, Triplock crown, and unidirectional green ceramic bezel rendered in Platinum graduations. The oyster bracelet includes the efficient Glidelock extension system for easy adjustments without tools.

Collectors appreciate the “Starbucks” for its blend of heritage and modernity—it succeeds the beloved “Hulk” model (116610LV) and injects a fresh visual appeal while keeping Rolex’s legendary standards intact.
