Rolex Submariner 116610LN History:
The 116610LN was originally released in 2010 and featured the new "Maxi" case with rugged thick lugs, and crown guards. It also improved on the previous generation (Ref. 16610) aluminium bezel insert to ceramic, as Rolex calls "Cerachrom" which is scratch resistant. The dial and hands of the 116610LN were also upgraded to include Rolex's "Chromalight" compound, this luminous material glows blue rather than green. The Oyster bracelet on the Rolex Submariner 116610LN also saw an improvement with an internal glide-lock clasp and extension system.
