Diamond Rolex Submariner Date Ref. 116659SABR is presented at Baselworld 2018 and immediately attracted much attention. The bezel of the extremely rare Submariner Date is adorned with 27 dark blue baguette sapphires, 11 baguette-cut diamonds at the hour markers, and a triangle-cut diamond at 12 o’clock. Although it certainly looks beyond the classic ‘tool’ watch, this diamond watch has retained its functionality – the first 9 sapphires are lighter blue, representing a classic diving bezel graduated for decompression time. The case and crown guard are enriched with 92 brilliant-cut diamonds. This Rolex Submariner Date Ref. 116659SABR approximately has 3.90 carats of sapphire and a total of 1.72 carats of diamonds on the 116659 SABR, all selected and set by the Rolex gemmology laboratory.
