This replica Submariner 116610LV iced out builds on the “Hulk” reference with full diamond coverage across the case, bracelet, and bezel while keeping the black dial from the original production variant. The 116610LV is the 40mm Submariner that ran with a green bezel and green dial in its most famous configuration, but this iced-out version swaps both the bezel insert and the color scheme for a diamond-heavy approach. The “Water Ghost” designation in the product name references the Chinese collector market terminology for Submariner models, and this SE variant pairs that cultural niche with aftermarket-style stone setting.

Case & Movement Specs

• Dial color: black

The 116610LV reference was discontinued and replaced by the 126610LV with the updated 41mm case. This 40mm version represents the previous generation, and iced-out builds based on it carry a slightly different case geometry than current-production diamonds.

Caliber Breakdown

Inside, an automatic movement handles hours, minutes, seconds, and date. The mechanics are standard Submariner functionality, unaffected by the diamond exterior. The SE designation in the product name signals a special edition configuration, distinguishing it from other iced-out 116610LV variants in the range. If you want to see how the same reference number translates without diamond work, the standard 126610LN shows the Submariner in its purest current form. Both belong to the Submariner collection, separated by diamonds and generation.

How It Compares

Iced-out Submariners built on the 116610LV reference are less common than those using the LN variant, giving them a degree of distinction within the diamond Submariner segment. The black dial on this version keeps things grounded even as the surrounding stones amplify the visual presence. It is a combination that balances flash with restraint. For collectors browsing diamond-set divers, this replica Submariner 116610LV iced out offers a 40mm platform with a reference number that carries its own collector significance.
