Original Watch ArticlesPublished
Tycoon Wang Jianlin's famous concept of making a hundred million has become a massive internet trend, but in reality, achieving that goal is nothing compared to actually acquiring this watch. It is universally renowned in the watch world; everyone knows of it. Not only does it have great depth, but its aesthetics are also widely acclaimed, and having the money does not always guarantee you can buy one. Hailing from horological royalty, Rolex, it is affectionately known in the community as the Green Submariner.

  Why is it so popular? There is far too much to say, so let's just discuss the 4 most important points~

  1, Its parent is Rolex.

  Whether someone knows about watches or not, most people will have heard of Rolex. Not only are they one of the top best-selling giants in the watch industry, but their quality and performance are also universally acclaimed, and in many places, they are even treated like a universal currency while holding their value well. Someone once remarked: modern diving watches are essentially defined by Rolex, and the Submariner is a must-have for any Rolex enthusiast. In 1926, Rolex drew inspiration from oyster shells to design the Oyster case, creating a tremendous sensation in the watch world at the time. Today, this DNA is wonderfully inherited in the Green Submariner.

  2, It comes with formidable capabilities.

  The Green Submariner is equipped with Rolex's in-house flagship movement, the 3135, which is heralded as the "king of automatic winding". The movement is also fitted with a Parachrom hairspring, offering resistance to shocks and temperature variations. For the crown, it employs a Triplock triple waterproofness system, which screws down to hermetically seal the Oyster case just like a submarine hatch. Therefore, a robust waterproof exterior combined with other stellar performance features helps the Submariner stand out among diving watches.

  3, Its face comes at a high price

  The nickname of the Hulk stems from its green appearance. The green bezel utilises Rolex's exclusive patented scratch-resistant Cerachrom ceramic insert, paired with a "green gold" coated dial (the exact alloy ratio of green gold remains a secret, of course), making it thoroughly striking on the wrist. Another sufficiently eye-catching feature is the instantaneous jump date function paired with the characteristic cyclops lens, making it quite distinctive and wonderfully individual among diving watches.

  Additionally, the hands and hour markers are coated with superior luminescent material. Even in dark environments, the dial emits a bright and lasting blue-green glow that is bound to captivate anyone. Such a striking appearance effortlessly appeals to both men and women alike.

  4, it is really quite difficult to buy one

  Naturally, anyone who sees these features would want one, yet the production volume is very low, resulting in a severe market quota shortage. In other words, even if you place an order in advance, you might be told, "Apologies, there is no need to order because there is simply no stock." After all, scarcity drives value, which is undoubtedly one of the key factors behind its enduring popularity.
