There’s a lot to consider when choosing the right watch. Unlike other brands, which tend to have only one truly iconic piece in their portfolio, Rolex is anything but shy in choosing. Different case sizes, materials, ages, complexity and overall aesthetics offer a myriad of options to find the perfect Father’s Day watch.
Assuming you’ve narrowed it down to used rather than antique so far, we’ve decided to break down the pros and cons of some of our favorite brands to give you a bit of insight as you make this big decision. At the end of the day, personal preference is destined to triumph when it comes to what feels best on the wrist, but if you need some help picking out the perfect model for Dad, this guide should at least start steering you in the right direction.
Being the classic to end all classics, the replica rolex Submariner is the most logical jumping-off point for this list. Not only is it a real classic in terms of design and pedigree, but it’s also a proper tool watch that was engineered from day one to take as much of a beating as you can throw at it. Given its longstanding history, there is no shortage of different models and references to choose from. Submarine 16610, however, makes the list because it has struck the right balance between modern functionality and a bit of retro glamour.
The Submariner 16610 is the ideal blend of fashion, functionality, and durability. With its striking blend of masculine features and delicate craftsmanship, the ref. 16610 is the great watch for the active father in your life. This special model is comprised of an all stainless steel case, which showcases the gloss black dial bordered by a black bidirectional bezel. The dial features luminous white hour markers, which allow for greater visibility underwater, and a strong and durable oyster bracelet, made with hand-brushed stainless steel. A Rolex Submariner 16610 is the perfect choice for any Rolex replica watch collection, particularly for the important father in your life.
The Submariner 16610 is the last reference from Rolex to feature an aluminum bezel insert – known to slowly fade with age and give the Sub a unique aesthetic characteristic – alongside the modern convenience of being fitted with a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal instead of the acrylic crystals fitted to vintage models like the Submariner 5513. It is also powered by the Rolex caliber 3135, which still powers modern Submariner models to this day. Finally, it has reached an ideal price position, as it is currently cheaper than its older predecessors and more modern counterparts, both of which have redesigned casings and ceramic bezels.
