Rolex Submariner Ref.M16610 RSC-Card from 1991

The Rolex Submariner M16610, produced between 1988 and approximately 2010. This reference represents a refined evolution of the classic Submariner. Notably, the "M" in its reference number signifies the introduction of the caliber 3130 movement, an in-house Rolex automatic caliber renowned for its reliability and precision. This movement brought improvements such as a new balance bridge for enhanced shock resistance. Produced over a significant period, the M16610 was eventually succeeded by the 116610LN model, which introduced ceramic bezel inserts and other modern upgrades. However, the M16610 remains highly prized by collectors for its blend of traditional Submariner aesthetics and improved mechanical performance, representing a perfect balance of heritage and technical refinement. 1988–1998: Tritium dials ("Swiss-T < 25") 1998–1999: Luminova dials ("Swiss") 2000–2010: Super-LumiNova dials ("Swiss Made") 2003: Introduction of the anniversary green-bezel Reference 16610LV "Kermit" Circa 2003–2004: End of drilled lug holes Circa 2007: Rehaut engraving becomes standard 2010: Discontinued and replaced by the ceramic-bezel 116610LN.
