Rolex Submariner Date "Starbucks" -

The Rolex Submariner Date reference 126610LV is one of the most recognizable and desirable modern dive watches, earning the nickname "Starbucks" from collectors due to its black dial and striking green Cerachrom bezel insert—a color combination emblematic of the brand's association with the color green.2

This model is part of the latest generation of the Submariner line, introduced in 2020.3 Based on Bob's Watches' inventory, this is a highly sought-after, contemporary piece.
