All good things must come to an end, and it is as true at Rolex as anywhere else. Over the years, certain pieces have disappeared from the portfolio, either replaced with an updated version or else retired completely. Rolex actually seems to make a habit of discontinuing many of their references with little or no warning, and for reasons only they understand. In some instances, the withdrawn watches are real fan favorites, and it leaves potential customers with just one option to get hold of them.Below, we take a look at five of Rolex’s most-loved discontinued models that are now only available on the pre-owned market.Rolex has a history of marking the key birthdays of a number of its icons with some kind of out-of-the-ordinary celebration, and in 2003, the Rolex Submariner celebrated its 50th anniversary. The world’s most famous luxury dive watch marked its half-century in style with the release of the ref. 16610LV, not only the first Submariner to be fitted with a black Maxi dial, but also the first to have a green bezel.Major departure that it was for the model, it became something of an opinion splitter. There had been variations on the traditional black bezeled pieces before – blue versions (although only on gold and two-tone pieces) being the most common; however, the emerald surround on this anniversary edition led to it picking up a nickname from both the ‘for’ and ‘against’ camps. Those who loved the new colorway called it the Kermit; those less keen christened it the Vomit Sub.
At lower prices, BP, VR and KS factories also make the replica of Sea-Dweller DEEPSEA D-Blue 116660, although not made with 904L stainless steel, but they are also in moderate quality, they are very good choices for people who do not have enough budget.As the two largest manufacturers of replica Rolex watches in the market, Noob and AR have produced a lot of good quality Rolex replicas for us, they are also the two factories that firstly used 904L stainless steel material in the making of replica Rolex, since the usage of this advanced stainless steel material, the competition between Noob and AR is also becoming more and more fierce.
