Specialist note

With Rolex Garantie Internationale stamped by Omani retailer Khimji Ramdas and dated 13 February 2015, sale tags, fitted green presentation box and outer packaging with the Khanjar symbol.

Reference 116610LN was launched in 2010 together with its green bezel counterpart. It is the successor of celebrated Submariner Date reference 16610. The most apparent difference between the two models is the ceramic insert in the bezel, while before it was a simple metal insert. This new material, called "Cerachrom" by Rolex, was developed to improve the scratch resistance of the previous metal inserts.
