Why Choose a Kermit 16610LV?

  • First Colored-Bezel Sub — Broke 50 years of black bezels; nicknamed after the Muppet’s green hue.
  • Limited Production — Only 7 years vs. 13 + for standard 16610, with early Flat 4 bezels especially scarce.
  • Neo-Vintage Sweet Spot — Acrylic crystal era is gone; ceramic era is here—16610LV captures the aluminum-insert charm with sapphire practicality.
  • Investment Track Record — Market index shows a 6 % YoY rise; Mk 1 Flat 4 pieces gained 12 %.

Rolex Kermit Price

Generally $14,000 to $22,000: Mk 1 Flat 4 at the top end, late Mk 5 at the lower end.

FAQ

Is the Rolex Kermit discontinued?

Yes — the original Submariner 16610LV “Kermit” was taken out of production in 2010 when Rolex rolled out the ceramic-bezel 116610LV.

How many Rolex Kermit were made?

Rolex never releases production totals; industry tracking of serial ranges (Y- to G-series, 2003-2010) suggests roughly 60 000–80 000 Kermits in total, with the 2003 “Flat 4” bezel batch comprising only a small fraction of that run.

“I’ve had my green-bezel Rolex Kermit for a few weeks now, and I’m hooked. The pop of color is just enough to stand out without being flashy. Thanks to WMD for finding this preowned Submariner that I wanted for so long.
