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 In some instances, the withdrawn watches are real fan favorites, and it leaves potential customers with just one option to get hold of them.Below, we take a look at five of Rolex’s most-loved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.
Noob V9 Rolex GMT Master II 116710BLNR and 116710LN Finally Released Noob Rolex GMT Master II 116710BLNR This is a big news in the beginning of 2019, Noob just gave our watch fans a big surprise. They upgraded their famous GMT-Master II watches 116710BLNR and 116710LN, now they finally used 904L stainless steel material on these two models, facing more and more good quality replica Rolex watches from AR factory, this is a big fight back from Noob. Now, we believe again that Noob has always offered us the best replica Rolex, even there are so many watch manufacturers. Please check the photos below, 116710BLNR is one of the best-selling replica Rolex watches, it has a black and blue ceramic bezel. While 116710LN has an entire black ceramic bezel and green GMT hand. With this upgradation on material, a lot of fans do not need to wait now, this is the best if you still love GMT II. Let’s check the specification of these two GMT-Master II. First, it is 116710BLNR.Movement: Asia Clone 3186 Automatic, Real GMT Function, Correct Hand Stack, Decorated Movement Plates and Auto Rotor to Genuine Rolex 3186Case: 40mm*12mm, 904L Stainless Steel, Serial Number is Engraved at 6:00 Bezel: Black/Blue Ceramic, Platinum Bezel Markers Crystal: Sapphire with Etched Crown at 6:00, AR Coating on Cyclops Dial: Black with Superlumed Hour Markers and Hands, Blue GMT Hand Bracelet: 904L Stainless Steel Oyster Bracelet with Rolesor Clasp Water Resistant: 50m ARF Factory V2 Edition Replica Rolex Datejust 36mm Two Tone Yellow Gold with Clone SH3135 Movement Replica Rolex 36mm Datejust Two Tone Yellow Gold Watch In most cases, Rolex Datejust 36mm is for men, but women can also choose models from this collection of Rolex. In my opinion, Rolex is the brand that is mostly willing to use precious metals such as yellow gold and rose gold. Besides Submariner, Datejust may be the best-selling Rolex watch and is the widely used dress watch by men, it is very suitable for men who have a successful career. A Rolex Datejust watch is a perfect match of their shirts and business suits.
In a word, the replica Rolex is currently the best blue Submariner 116619LB.The case is made of 316F stainless steel and measured to be 40mm in diameter, it is brushed in whole surface, one-piece forged case has better water resistant performance, including screw-in crown, you do not need to worry water enter into when washing hands or swimming. The bezel is blue ceramic and has silver markers engraved, there is a pearl on bezel that has silver edge. These bezel markers look more delicate than that of previous versions. Because of one-piece forged case, there is no gasp between the bezel and case. Blue dial echoes with blue ceramic bezel, white printings and superlumed hour markers as well as hands, the inner bezel has correct Rolex Rehaut engraved like genuine, as well as unique reference number.Using solid links on stainless steel bracelet, which is new Oyster style, the replica features a similar weight to original 116619LB. The bracelet is also one of the places I am pround of. Its polishing and craftmanship are better than any other versions. The factory researched the genuine watch and produced the bracelet that features the same folding structure as original. When opening the clasp, you can find the blacken Rolex Logo and other engraving, these are all done by laster machine, you can always tell a good quality replica from poor ones by checking these small details. Besides the super blue dial lume, the replica is powered by a super clone 3135 calibre, which is the latest 3135 movement in our watch market, it could be more stable and accurate than other 3135 replica movements. But you could also buy one with Asian 2836 at lower cost.Here are some pictures I just took from the watch that was borrowed from my watch supplier. By the way, the replica is also made by N factory, which is the pioneer that has been manufacturing such high quality replica Rolex for years.I have introduced the black Submariner 116610 LN before, it is a great work from Noob factory, the replica is the latest V6s version in our market and regarded as the best Submariner replica currently.
However, the 126710 Blue/Red GMT II which Noob just published saved face for them.In the past several years, Rolex GMT-Master Batman 116710BLNR has always been the most popular GMT watch. Till 2019, a lot of new Rolex GMT-Master II models were published, there were also a lot of factories manufacturing GMT-Master II, however, among so many watch manufacturers, no one is able to make them with 904L stainless steel and the same Rolex movement at the same time, except Noob. So, even you need to wait for a bit longer to get your ordered watches from Noob, sometimes it is worth to wait.Now, back to the review of this GMT-Master II, like other GMT-Master II from Rolex, this one is also measured to be 40mm in case diameter, the case thickness is 12.5mm. Both case and jubilee bracelet are made of 904L stainless steel, the bezel uses high quality ceramic material, it is in blue/red color, actually the red looks like brown, the bezel markers have platinum coating that will never fade. About movement, Noob installed a clone 3285 in this replica Rolex GMT, this is the first 3285 movement in our market that has correct hand stack and adjustable hour hand, its functions are completely the same as genuine Rolex 3285.Noob’s Rolex products are in good quality, some models represent the highest watch-making level in our market, some models have become the legend, for example, the black Submariner 116610LN. About this GMT-Master, if you pursue perfection in case design, dial details and even movement function, then choose from Noob. However, as I said before, the GMT-Master with Super Clone movement from Noob is not that stable, my clients who bought Noob GMT-Master before now all had some issues on their watches, what I want to say is that Noob still has not developed one movement for GMT-Master that is as stable as the Super Clone 4130 for their Daytona products.
Are they likely to issue a Coke at some point in the future? It is impossible to tell, to be honest. There is already a decent amount of color in the range, with the blue and black ‘Batman’ pieces and the pair of ‘Root Beer’ examples. And with there actually being a total of three Pepsi’s – one in steel and two in white gold – maybe Rolex has decided that’s enough.That being said, the Fat Lady (that ref. 16760 original) turns 40 in 2023, and as already discussed, the brand loves a birthday. So, just maybe…Until then, we will have to content ourselves with the references available on the pre-owned market.Just about the rarest thing in the world (the world of horology at any rate) is for Rolex to succumb to audience pressure. Yet, in 2009, that’s exactly what happened when that venerable old warhorse, the Datejust, was issued in a new 41mm size. The largest Datejust option had been 36mm model since before the Earth cooled, but the trend for ever-increasing watch sizes was one the brand could only ignore for so long.However, the so-called Datejust II not only added a significant 5mm but also changed the proportions of the watch’s individual elements. The bezel grew broader, and while the case got wider, the bracelet didn’t, leading to thicker lugs. Overall, it traded the former model’s graceful, sweeping lines for a more muscular sporty profile, adding bigger hour markers on the dial to fill up the extra room.
