ROLEX HULK

The Rolex Submariner 116610LV "Hulk" was released in 2010 and used the same 40mm MAXI case as the Rolex Submariner 116610LN Date. The Rolex Hulk featured a number of upgrades over the previous generation Rolex Kermit - including a green ceramic bezel with platinum inserts. Rolex calls this material "cerachrom" which unlike the aluminium bezel of the 16610LV is scratch resistant. The Rolex Submariner 116610LV Hulk is powered by the same calibre 3135 automatic movement as the 16610LV Kermit. The green dial and hands of the 116610LV Hulk were however upgraded to include Rolex's Chronalight material. This luminous material has a blue glow when subjected to sunlight rather than the green glow as per previous versions. The bracelet on the Rolex Hulk also saw a huge improvement. The 116610LV is fitted with an oyster bracelet with internal glide-lock clasp and extension system. The Rolex Submariner 116610LV Hulk retained the engraved inner rehaut with the serial number displayed at the 6 o'clock position.

HOW MUCH IS A ROLEX SUBMARINER HULK?

In 2020 the Rolex Submariner 116610 LV Hulk had a UK retail price of just £7550. However, due to the huge popularity of the model and the lack of availability, prices on the secondary market were double this. Some industry professionals thought that prices would reached their peak when the Hulk was discontinued but prices continue to rise. You should expect to pay a premium for an all original watch with inner and outer boxes, warranty card, both hang tags and both manuals. Recently serviced or new old stock Rolex Hulk watches will be the most expensive examples will find - but these will also increase in value the most.

HOW LONG IS THE WAITING LIST FOR A ROLEX SUBMARINER HULK?

There was a time when it was only the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona that had a waiting list. There was also a time when we would struggle to sell a Rolex Submariner Hulk. Times have most certainly changed and pretty much all of the Rolex Professional range now have lengthy waiting list - although most AD's are reluctant to even place potential customers on waiting lists unless they have some form of relationship and buying history. Our estimate is that a customer with a buying history would be waiting 3 - 5 years to get a Rolex Submariner Hulk from their local Rolex dealer. 

WILL THE ROLEX SUBMARINER HULK GO UP IN VALUE? 

The simple answer is yes. It's impossible to to say how much the Rolex Submariner Hulk will increase in value during your ownership but we can have a look at the price increase from the past 10 years and use this as a guide. With this in mind you can expect the Rolex Submariner Hulk to increase in value at a rate of around 10% per year.

WHAT MAKES THE ROLEX SUBMARINER HULK SO POPULAR?

The Rolex Submariner Hulk was not always a popular watch. It's only in the past 3 or so years that the green dial and green bezel of the 116610LV has captured the hearts of collectors. Green is an acquired taste though and from our experience the Rolex Hulk is an easy watch to fall out of love with.
