Rolex is a true pioneer in watchmaking technology. Among their most significant inventions is the Submariner, which was the first watch ever to offer water-resistance of up to 100 meters. The now-iconic Rolex Two-Tone Submariner was the inspiration behind the flourishing dive watch market as we know it, and almost every dive watch in existence today was in some way influenced by the Rolex Submariner. While it was developed for use while underwater, the Submariner has since become a coveted timepiece among collectors of all professions. The line is varied and offers a feature set to suit almost any wrist. However, today we will take a closer look at an earlier model of their Rolesor two-tone steel and gold Submariner ( Rolex Submariner two-tone ). The Rolex 16613 Two-Tone Submariner.The Rolex Submariner was developed in 1953 and made its official debut a year later at Basel Watch Fair 1954. As previously mentioned, the collection was the first to offer resistance to depths of up to 100 meters, which would then evolve into 200 meters, before increasing once again to its current and impressive 300-meter depth rating. In true Rolex fashion, the Submariner was carefully refined over the years to include a safer unidirectional bezel, improved materials, and a higher-beat movement.The original model was presented in stainless steel with an all-gold variation following in the late 1960s and a two-tone option coming to market in 1984 via the ref. 16803. The ref. 16613 was released a few years later in 1988 and enjoyed a long production run before being discontinued and replaced in 2009 with the current Cerachrom ceramic bezel 6-digit ref. 116613, marking the end of the aluminum bezel Rolex Submariner two-tone watches.
While bidirectional rotating bezels may be quicker for wearers to turn to the appropriate spot, as a dive bezel it’s not the best option. If the bezel gets accidentally knocked, this could cause divers to miscalculate how long they have been underwater. Therefore, a unidirectional bezel is more prudent because accidental knocks to the bezel can only result in overestimating immersion time – it’s far preferable to start ascending to the surface earlier or spend longer than necessary at a decompression stop.Rolex began equipping the Submariner with unidirectional bezels starting with the Submariner Date ref. 16800, which was introduced around 1979. The no-date Submariner model received a unidirectional bezel with the introduction of the Submariner ref. 14060 in 1990.Like the previous generation, the new unidirectional bezels included aluminum bezel inserts. In 1983, Rolex introduced the first two-tone Submariner model in the form of the Submariner Date ref. 16803, which sported a yellow gold knurled bezel with a black or blue aluminum insert. To celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Submariner in 2003, Rolex introduced the stainless steel Submariner Date ref. 16610LV with a green bezel insert.In 2008, Rolex introduced the first Submariner models equipped with unidirectional bezels featuring Cerachrom inserts. Cerachrom is Rolex’s proprietary ceramic alloy that is not only resistant to scratching but also to fading. The 60-minute graduations are cut into the bezel and then the ceramic bezel insert is fully coated with either yellow gold (for yellow gold and two-tone models) or platinum (for white gold or steel models). The gold/platinum is then polished away from the ceramic surface until only the recessed numerals and markings are left with the metal filling.By 2012, Rolex had rolled out the Cerachrom bezels across all Submariner models and color options include black, blue, and green. A quick way to know the color of the bezel is to look at the letters in the reference number: LB (blue bezel), LN (black bezel), and LV (green bezel).
Two tone Rolex Daytona 116523, a very good watch for you to wear in daily life, however, the golden tone also lets you feel a bit luxury. The replica is the latest product of BP factory, which also makes good quality Submariner replicas and has been famous for making replica watches with goold and correct dial lume. I just got this watch from my watch supplier and took these photos for you guys.40mm in case diameter, the replica is very suitable for mens wrist, made of 316L stainless steel on base, the surface is plated with gold coating, bezel, crown, chrono buttons and the central links of bracelet all have a thick layer of gold coating being plated. Four lugs are polished while all other watch parts are brushed. The silver and golden tone of the replica mixes very well so that the replica does not look too shiny. On the dial, main black color really matches well with the golden dial details, three subdials have golden circle, hour markers are in golden and feature white luminous material, so are the hands, see the lume picture below, a strong green light and very beautiful, isn’t it?People should not doubt the chrono function of this replica Daytona, the chronograph is fully working. Modern replica watch making technology could easily achieve the chrono function, they do the best on Rolex Daytona replica, actually some AP replicas could even be equipped with Secs@12 7750 movement that are the same as genuine, so on this Daytona watch, the central second chronograph hand will start to run when you push the 2:00 button, the 4:00 button is for reset, I will take a video later to show you how to operate.The bracelet is two tone and consists of three section of links, the middle link are in golden. The two tone bracelet is the bright spot of this replica. All links of the bracelet are made of solid stainless steel, although not that high quality texture as original, the replica will have a similar weight to genuine 116523 because of being equpped with a solid bracelet. By the way, the clasp has the same structure as genuine Daytona, the engraving on clasp is sandblasted finished and feels very delicate, it is really hard to describe such texture feeling, you must have one by yourself.This Tudor watch was published in 2017 Basel, it is the first two tone watch Tudor has released. After all Tudor is a sub-brand of Rolex, it followed Submariner’s design idea, firstly, in the early development, Tudor published several Black Bay models that feature different dial color, in the second stage, Tudor started to produce some models in two tone or full gold, this is like the development track of Rolex Submariner. In my opinion, Tudor Black Bay is the cheaper version of Rolex Submariner. Today, I want to introduce a two tone replica Tudor watch here, overall, this is a high quality replica watch, and two tone style allows you to wear the watch in more formal occasions.The case is made of 316L stainless steel, bezel tooth, bezel engravings and crown have 18K yellow gold coating, which does not fade even after one-year wearing.
Before going into a further discussion of the replica, let’s check its specification first.Movement: Super Copy 3186 Automatic, Decorated Movement Plates and Rotor, Correct Hand StackCase: 904L Stainless Steel Bezel: Blue/Black Ceramic with Silver Markers Crystal: Scratch-proof Sapphire Crystal with Laser Tiny Crown Logo at 6 o’clock Dial: Black with Superlumed Hour Markers and Hands Bracelet: 904L Stainless Steel Bracelet with Rolesor Clasp Water Resistant: 50m Like the two Submariner watches Noob just published in 2018, the case of 116710 BLNR replica is also made of 904L stainless steel. The upgrade of case and bracelet material makes the replica watch have the same weight as genuine. Case is 40mm in diameter and 13mm in thickness. With a smooth polishing on the edge, the case does not feel scratch when wearing on hand. Smooth streamlined case design makes the watch fit your wrist better. Bezel is the place that has the greatest improvement. Compared with previous V7, the bi-colored bezel of V8 has a more natural color transmission from blue to black. GMT markers on the bezel are engraved correctly.On black dial, there is an extra blue hand with a big arrow indicating GMT time. Hour markers have silver edge and are filled with white lume material like hands. If you concern the hand stack, then this V8 replica GMT Master II 116710 BLNR has a correct hand stack. From top to bottom, the hands are second hand, minute hand, blue GMT hand and hour hand, while other factories and previous version of Noob 116710 BLNR usually set the GMT hand at the bottom.At last, the replica is equipped with a Swiss 3186 automatic movement, we also call it Super Copy 3186. It is not an Asian clone 3186 on basis of a Chinese movement, this Super Copy 3186 runs more accurate and stable than any other 3186 movements developed before. Now, the factory will send one pair of blue rubber straps for free if you order this GMT Master Rolex watch.I want to introduce more Rolex watches here because a few factories produced some innovative replica Rolex watches with 904L stainless steel and better clone movement. Now it is not surprising most Submariner replicas are equippeed with Super Copy 3135 movement, since the end of 2017, some factories even used clone 3235 in Datejust models.
