Based on the 116610LN platform, this replica submariner 63469 introduces a blue-and-white diamond bezel that departs from every factory configuration available. The 40mm case retains the Submariner’s signature proportions while the two-tone stone arrangement across the bezel creates a color split reminiscent of the “Pepsi” and “Batman” schemes found on GMT-Master references, but executed here in set diamonds rather than ceramic. It is a concept piece that borrows design cues from multiple Rolex families and compresses them into one watch.

Technical Overview

• Case diameter: 40mm
• Reference: 116610LN
• Bezel: blue and white diamond-set bi-color
• Crystal: sapphire with Cyclops magnification
• Crown: screw-down with crown guards
• Bracelet: Oyster three-link
• Movement: automatic
• Functions: date, unidirectional rotating bezel

The blue-white split on the bezel runs at approximately the six o’clock axis, dividing the stone field into two distinct halves. Under direct light the contrast between the two tones sharpens, while in ambient lighting the transition softens into a gradient effect.

Inside the Movement

The automatic caliber inside handles time and date without complication additions. The 116610LN case design includes a screw-down caseback and the Oyster-standard crown guard structure, both carried over from the pre-2020 Submariner platform. The bracelet connects through drilled lugs on earlier production variants and solid endlinks on later ones. For a very different take on iced-out color play, consider the 116610LV with green dial that pairs diamond pave with the Hulk’s sunburst green face. Both options sit in the Submariner catalog and share the same underlying case architecture, but the mood each delivers is entirely different.

What Sets It Apart

Bi-color bezels on a Submariner exist only in the aftermarket space. Rolex has never produced a two-tone diamond bezel for any Submariner reference, so this configuration carries zero chance of being confused with any production model. The blue-white color pairing reads cooler and more modern than the warm gold-and-green or gold-and-black combinations found on two-tone metal Submariners. If you want a diamond Submariner that does not follow the usual monochrome pave formula, this replica submariner 63469 provides a color-split alternative with genuine visual impact.
