Submariner Date

The Rolex Submariner Date reference 126613LN is the two-tone iteration of the modern 41 mm Submariner family, pairing Oystersteel with 18 ct yellow gold across the case, bracelet, and bezel insert surround. Its black dial and black ceramic bezel insert give the watch a purposeful, high-contrast character that has defined the Submariner aesthetic for decades. Powering the reference is Rolex's in-house calibre 3235, a movement that brought meaningful advances in precision, power reserve, and magnetic resistance to the Submariner line.

The 126613LN was introduced in 2020 as part of a comprehensive update to the Submariner collection, which saw the case diameter grow from 40 mm to 41 mm and the movement transition from the calibre 3135 to the calibre 3235. The two-tone Submariner lineage stretches back to the 1980s, making the combination of Oystersteel and yellow gold one of the most recognisable configurations in the line's history. The reference succeeded the 116613LN, carrying forward the black-dial, black-bezel identity while incorporating the engineering refinements of Rolex's fifth-generation movement platform. Among collectors, the 126613LN is regarded as the definitive modern expression of the classic two-tone Submariner.
