Strap for the Rolex Submariner LV
The Rolex Submariner Date Reference 116610LV features a green bezel and dial combination that is ideally suited for the Forest Green and Jet Black Vulchromatic® strap shown in the photo from the Rubber B e-Boutique. Made in Switzerland, Rubber B’s dual-colored straps use no glues or bonding materials in the manufacturing process.
Instead, a patented process of molding one piece of colored vulcanized rubber to another is used to create a flexible and stylish strap. Glues and other bonding agents can lead to eventual issues, for they tend to wear out.
These sub-standard agents might cause your strap to slowly break apart, though this is not a problem with Rubber B due to the signature bonding techniques used to construct it. In short, this dual-color band is permanently fused for the lifetime of the strap.
After the second color is molded into the host strap, it is micro-calibrated to fit the Submariner case with a flush mount, free from gaps or movement. This particular color combination brings out the green color of the ‘Hulk,’ as it is called by fans of the configuration.
The black dulls down the brightness of the dial and the green design detail provides continuity in the color combination. A 316L tang buckle completes the configuration and provides comfort and security to the wearer. If you are looking for a unique and superb strap for the Rolex Submariner LV, look no further.
Rubber B offers a variety of colors and styles designed for the Submariner Date model (both with the ceramic bezel and the non-ceramic bezel). For those who are fans of the Glidelock extension system found on the Oysterlock deployant clasp, the Rubber B factory offers rubber straps that incorporate it into the design.
Rubber B’s goal is always to offer the ultimate rubber strap for your luxury wristwatch. Rubber B is here to provide you with the ideal strap for your Submariner LV. To browse the entire collection of Swiss-made rubber straps for Rolex, visit rubberb.com.

The world’s most recognizable timepiece, beautifully paired with the Ultimate Rubber Strap
But Rolex is full of surprises. It’s difficult to predict whether or not they will touch the Submariner, but it seems like a good time to have a look at the model and think about what makes it the world’s most popular timepiece. While the Sub was always a cult favorite among professional divers, its wide-ranging popularity may have begun or was certainly reinforced in the U.S., by James Bond. In 1962’s Dr. No, Sean Connery’s Bond began a tradition of wearing a Submariner while chasing down his villain and getting to know Honey Ryder. He wore a Submariner again in From Russia With Love, Goldfinger, and Thunderball. Read more
What is a hulk watch?
The Rolex Submariner 116610LV earned it’s unique nickname due to its striking green profile, which is a similar color to the famous Marvel superhero.
The Submariner “Hulk” burst on the scene in 2010, the 60th anniversary of Rolex’s famous diving watch. Before the “Hulk,” Rolex only offered this model in black or blue, making the 116610LV a truly innovative time piece. The case diameter remains the same (40 mm), though the “Hulk” features a bulkier Maxi dial and lugs when compared to Submariner 16610. Couple this with the watch’s unmistakable color, and the Rolex Submariner 116610LV has a boldness that is difficult to match.
Take a look at the full of used Rolex Submariners on sale at Rolex Submariner, and if you are searching for the ideal accent to your “Hulk” watch, look no further than Rubber B.
Are the bracelets on the 116610LN and 116610LV the same?
Both the Rolex Submariner 116610LN and 116610LV feature the 904L Oystersteel bracelet. This bracelet comes with a Glidelock mechanism that allows for small adjustments, making things more comfortable for the wearer.
Many Rolex wearers elect to try an alternative material for their watch straps, namely rubber. Rubber B‘s signature Swiss-made look, feel, and durability have made them an industry trailblazer when it comes to rubber watch straps.
