Rolex’s Most Underrated Submariner - 16613: A Lifestyle Review

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Between the Hulk, Smurf, Kermit, and all those other hyped Rolex Submariners, it’s easy to let a piece like the 16613 slip through the horological cracks. As many of you know, I already own a ceramic Submariner so I was a little apprehensive about even looking at a new one. In addition, I’ve never been a big fan of two-tone watches. However, I’ve recently come to recognize a certain maturity to the two-tone look upon seeing it on my own wrist.
In this episode I take the 16613 for a test drive around the city to see how it wears on a day-to-day basis, and to give the good Gentry a better idea of what it’s like to actually own this watch. In my endeavor, I discover that there’s an unexpected and refined elegance to how it feels on the wrist. If you too are a little skeptical of two-tone watches or thinking about a new Submariner, then join me today to find out what it’s like to sport a classic piece like this in your daily life.

Thankfully I wasn't the only one and managed to flip the squale without losing. And now TGV " made it" after climbing up with the help of other KZread personalities only to turn his back. And now no more squale or seiko it's all rolex rolex rolex. Hilarious.

    In 2009 while on a cruise I walked into a Rolex AD store in Cayman Islands. As I was standing there and admiring this watch they informed me that this was the last watch they had left and the rest of them were new 2010 models which were for sale at much higher price(I believe they were about 9k). By this time I been thinking about purchasing a Rolex watch for about eight years and they did nothing but went up in price every year. The sales lady at the store told me if I was interested in this watch they were willing to sell it for $7100. After consulting with my wife I finally pulled the trigger and purchased the watch. For the next 9 years this was the only watch that I wore. In the last year I got more interested in horology and purchased other watches but this is still my favored. I never had the watch opened, serviced, or polished and it is still keeping good time. For me it’s been a perfect watch whether I am working around the house, at work, or night on the town. All I have to do is rinse it under water and it looks great! Best purchase I ever made.

    Great video as always TGV. I bought this exact watch for my father's 70th birthday, it is a brilliant timepiece. I purchased myself the SUB at that sametime. Since then like yourself my Rolex collection both new & vintage has expanded. But I did make a bad decision in purchasing the all good SUB with the ceramic bezel when it was first released, I have only work it maybe 5 times in all those years as it just doesn't suit me. And naturally the resale on this piece with the demand being solely focused on all the stainless steel models makes it pointless to sell, as the offers I received were so low that I thought I would simply retain it. But I will buy the new two tone SEA DWELLER at Basel this year as the size is perfect for my 7.5" wrist.

    Good evening TGV, the video is very nice to watch, always a pleasure when you take the show to the outside. The older I get, the more I dig Two Tone or even full gold watches. For the Sub I personally would not go full gold, but Two Tone is very nice (just as the GMT Master Two Tone). The contrast between the black dial and bezel with the flash of gold looks very delicate in my eyes.

    Haven't got a clue Sir on proper Horology, I just love my Poljot CCCP 1968 limited edition, and Poljot Transiberian railway watch and love them. It's mechanical movement I love, and it's all I can afford. I am from a working persons background, but am just blown away not by your watches, but your honesty no matter what the price. You deserve to achieve your goal Sir, all the best for the future you have earned it. 👍 Tam.

    We watch people really are a funny lot. You have a steel sub, then you start craving for a two tone, you have a no date, you are hankering for a date. There is no end to this...

    Thanks for the video Tristano, perfectly delivered as always 👌 I love the more traditional case size and the smaller lugs but i think it’s an opportunity lost that it doesn’t have the modern glide lock clasp or the maxi dial for that matter......choose wisely mo chara 🤔

    On another note I was looking at a version of this watch before I picked up the Hulk - not a fan of two tone bracelets but I LOVE the colour scheme. the smudging of the bracelet really put me off in the end. Brushed steel all the way for me.

    Perhaps the King Emeritus as it's the older model with the older clasp. Beautiful watch and very different from the gold Day Date - about $8K different. Possibly a nice transition to a more mature style.

    Agreed about missing the intros and the hope the intimacy of the old videos is not left on the cutting room floor or some producer's laptop. Sometimes production team = over produced. I am sure you are still working on finding a balance between the two. Looking forward to more videos.

    Like the new style TGV👍 I considered the 16613 too, but then I tried the 16713 GMT II on a jubilee which I think has even more vintage vibe... and do not scratch or smudge as much. But TT 90’s sports Rolex are definately 🔥🔥🔥

    Wow, didn't think I'd see you considering either a two tone or all gold Rolex :) I guess tastes do change, and I agree that the yellow gold two tone pre-ceramic Sub is nice. Although I might prefer the Rolex ceramic "Root Beer" GMT (if it's possible to find at an AD)

    Very slick-looking video, TGV. That's a gorgeous watch. I preferred the classical music you would play in the background of some of your videos to this generic beat, but other than that, the video was great.

    7:20 I honestly like the “anchor” that is connected to the Rolex. Yesterday, I saw such an achor for sale on an auction site. I am not sure, but do they still attach such an anchor when they sell a Rolex Submariner? I find this anchor a great idea, distinguishes the brand from other brands and really creates a premium feel. If Rolex doesnt use it anymore, it certainly is a missed opportunity.

    Hi TGV. I’m enjoying the new production style you’re employing with the WatchThe around town backdrop was cool. As for the Sub, personally, I’m not much of a ‘gold watch’ guy, but i thought the blend in that particular Roley was very tasteful and handsome and I recon you can pull it off, should you decide to pull the trigger. The missing GlideLock clasp is a bit of a shame though given the loss of convenience. I’m confident you’ll have much fun experiencing prior to buying 😁. O &U brother.

    Lovely watch I owned one. I sold it to get the solid gold blue dial sub last year with glide lock adjustment. It’s quite blingy of course and most of my watches are more reserved but it was always a grail watch for me as I love the sub And Rolex intense blue and their quality of gold. I went through a phase of big watches but 40mm is perfect again for me. I liked the style of this video. Nicely done.
