Rolex Submariner 40mm Blue Dial 116613LB

The Rolex Submariner 116613LB—affectionately recognized by collectors as the "Bluesy"—epitomizes the pinnacle of two-tone marine luxury. Combining resilient 316L stainless steel with radiant 18k yellow gold elements, this reference features an opulent royal blue sunburst dial complemented by a high-gloss blue ceramic bezel. The harmonious contrast between polished gold tones and brushed steel creates a commanding aesthetic equally suited for nautical adventures and formal boardroom settings.

The case is precision-machined from solid Two-Tone 316L Stainless Steel & 18k Yellow Gold Plating, selected for its structural rigidity, scratch resistance, and long-lasting lustre. Framing the dial is a unidirectional rotating royal blue ceramic bezel with gilt/platinum numerals, engineered with clean, tactile clicks for tracking elapsed time or immersion intervals. A high-clarity scratch-resistant sapphire crystal protects the dial, treated with an interior anti-reflective coating to guarantee clear visibility under direct sunlight. The royal sunburst blue dial features applied hour markers filled with bright luminescent material, complemented by the signature Mercedes hour hand, geometric minute hand, and a lollipop sweeping seconds hand.

Powering the timepiece is a robust automatic mechanical movement operating at a smooth sweeping cadence. Driven by an oscillating bidirectional rotor that winds the mainspring naturally through wrist movement, the caliber provides a steady power reserve for dependable day-to-day operation. The mechanism supports hours, minutes, central sweeping seconds, quickset date, ensuring that date changes snap cleanly at midnight while offering time-setting functionality with solid crown engagement.

For superior wearability, the watch is equipped with a two-tone 316l stainless steel & 18k yellow gold plated oyster bracelet with folding safety clasp. The bracelet geometry conforms naturally to the wrist, distributing weight evenly to eliminate fatigue during extended daily wear. Built for the modern active lifestyle, the watch is rated for daily splash resistance (hand-washing, rain, and light surface splashes), though hot water, saunas, and recreational diving should be avoided to preserve mechanical seals. Each timepiece undergoes rigorous multi-point calibration and inspection prior to dispatch, backed by complimentary insured express delivery and our comprehensive 24-month warranty.
