To Get List : Submariner Types

There are a few Submariner types that I would like to add into my collection when the right time comes (no pun intended :) or when some excess funds are freed in future. In the meantime, these pictures would spur me on...

1) Rolex Submariner 116610LV (aka Hulk), which could be have for app RM28k new; or Rolex Submariner 116610LN (app RM25k new); or Rolex Submariner 116613LB (app RM34k new); or Rolex Deep Sea Sea-Dweller 116660 (app RM31k new). All 3 Submariner models are 40mm and utilising Rolex Caliber 3135 with Parachrom Bleu hairspring, while the DSSD utilises the same movement but has a larger 44mm case (the latest Sea-Dweller 4000 116600 has now shrunk to 40mm same like the Submariner, and is technologically more advanced but at a more wearable size, thus well-worth the consideration too).




2)  Vintage Tudor Submariner Snowflake. There are a few models to choose from but I am focusing more on the 9401/9411 models from the 1970's, which utilised the dependable ETA movements which would be relatively easy to be serviced by most competent watchsmiths. Oh, and the patina on these vintage Submariners should looked really attractive by now and prices would be more on a willing buyer-willing seller basis.
