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).
The Rolex Crown Logo positioned at 12 under the triangle marker is three-dimensional, all hour markers and hands have yellow golden edge, which echoes with the yellow golden bezel markers. White luminous material applied on markers and hands will offer green light in the dark.By the way, the watch is equipped with a Super Asian 3135 movement, it is modified from a Miyota 9015 automatic movement, and it is better than the clone 3135 movement that is modified with a Chinese automatic, as we all know, automatic movement coming from Japan is always more stable and accurate.Whether in genuine or replica watch field, 114060 has a high popularity like black Submariner 116610 LN. The only difference is that 114060 does not have date function, while this will not stop it become a hot watch, because someone likes the cyclob and some people don’t. The replica Rolex Submariner 114060 here is made by J12 factory, not only it has a superior case finish, but it is also equipped with a super clone 3130 movement.The case is well brushed, it has a great hand touch and case profile is the same as genuine, because the usage of high quality watch material, the whole replica Rolex has a similar weight to original watch. Case and bracelet are made of solid 316L stainless steel, you will feel its weight on hand. The bezel uses real black ceramic, deeply engraved bezel has a silver cream pearl, which is domed not flat.Like Super 3135, the clone 3130 is also a great movement which J12 factory researched and developed. This movement now is only used by Rolex Submariner No Date replica, which is a dream watch for people who do not like a magnifier on the crystal. The movement only offers hours, minutes and seconds for the replica. The factory has modified the rotor and movement plates, so it will be closer to genuine 3130 calibre, besides, the clone 3130 also features a big red wheel.Although sold at a high price, but Rolex 114060 will not be a regret choice, it has 100% same quality as Noob Submariner 116610 LN.16610LV is an old Submariner model Rolex published to celebrate its 50th anniversary. I think it is the first Submariner to use a green ceramic bezel, in next a few years, Rolex released another Submariner with green bezel and dial, it is 116610LV, but I still love the old 16610LV model, I like its green bezel and black dial, because this gives me a good visual impact.The replica Rolex Submariner 16610LV below is made by BP factory, it is the so-called Swiss Made Replica Watch we usually discuss. Every thing on case finishing, dial details and accuracy is perfect. It gives a good wearing comfort and high end touch feeling.The biggest two selling points of the replica lie in its Swiss lume material and Super Clone 3135 movement.
In my opinion, the competition between them mainly comes from two products, Daytona and Sea-Dweller Single Red 126600, which are the most popular two Rolex replicas in 2019.About Daytona, it is undeniable that Noob makes the best replica, however, about this 43mm Sea-Dweller Single Red 126600, I think both have their own advantages. Noob and AR make it with 904L stainless steel, about movement, Noob has Asia 2836 and 3235 options, while AR factory only has Asia 2824 movement option. AR factory unveiled the replica 126600 earlier than Noob, now the version of 126600 from AR is V3.Both factories make the same case size, which is 43mm in diameter and 14mm thick. However, about the case finish, I think AR factory is better. All clients of mine who bought this 126600 said that the AR 126600 gave them a real feeling when they firstly touched the case and bracelet. Every corner of the case is polished by skilled master, the case of ARF 126600 is completed to be perfect.The bezel uses ceramic insert on both factories. About bezel tooth, AR is a bit sharp, while Noob’s is a bit smooth and has a better touch. The sharp of each tooth on Noob 126600 has a rounded chamfer polishing, so these teeth feel smooth. About the bezel pearl, it looks a little greenish, while Noob’s looks more white, the bezel pearl of AR 126600 is closer to genuine. The inlaid method of the bezel pearl is also different, Noob sticks it with glue, while AR inlays the pearl into, if you check the Noob 126600 carefully, there is glue mark around the bezel pearl, while AR’s is very clean. Because the installation of bezel pearl is different on both factories, Noob’s is a bit higher than its edge around, while AR’s is correct, the same as genuine, it will also not easily fall off. About bezel engravings, AR 126600’s are deeper than Noob’s, because Noob’s bezel engravings are shallow, the platinum coating is exposed to dust and sweat on your hands, so the white coating will easily become black. While the bezel engravings on AR 126600 are much deeper, they can avoid the contact with hand sweat, so after a long time wearing, they still look very clearn. So, about the bezel finish of 126600, I think AR wins.I can hardly find difference. Both Noob and AR have made a good dial. About the letters below red “SEA-DWELLER”, AR’s are slightly plump, while Noob’s are a bit thinner. The lume coating on the dial is a little yellowish on Noob, while AR’s is very clearn.On the side of the helium valve button, Noob has a qr code sticker, while AR factory does not have. Noob makes it correct.
On brown dial, each detail is very close to genuine, cream yellow Arabic hour markers are three-dimensional and plump. Blue steel hour and minute hands are wide, they are applied with luminous material, so are hour markers. The dial has a perfect lume effect at night. The Lume light is green and lasts for a long time. At 3 o’clock, date is displayed through a small square window, date font is white and has the correct thickness. More important, the date font is centered in the window, not too right or too left.Genuine IW327006 titanium watch is equipped with IW35111 in-house movement, which is actually developed from Swiss ETA 2892. The replica uses a Sea-Gull 2892, which has the same construction as ETA 2892, maybe the decoration on rotor and movement plate is different, but the watch has a solid case back, so I do not care the decoration, as long as it is stable. Absolutely if you do care about the subtle details, you can install one genuine ETA 2892 inside the replica by yourself, it is easy. The improved Sea-Gull 2892 movement of the replica has the same winding feel, its date adjusting direction is also correct.
