Forum rows are posts on Reddit r/Watchexchange, RolexForums and WatchUSeek that the seller marked sold. The amount is the listed price when marked sold, not a confirmed sale price, and forum rows do not feed our price.

Median price per month or quarter. A point needs at least 3 records in its month or quarter; a gap in a line means too few records, and nothing is filled in. Forum prices are the price a seller listed on Reddit r/Watchexchange, RolexForums or WatchUSeek when the post was marked sold, not a confirmed sale price. Historical context only: these series do not feed the price shown above.

The Rolex Kermit at a glance

The Rolex Kermit is the Submariner Date reference 16610LV. Rolex launched it in 2003, and Wikipedia lists it as a 50th-anniversary Submariner. It has a 40 mm case in 904L stainless steel, a black Maxi dial with larger luminous markers, a green anodized aluminium bezel insert and the automatic calibre 3135. It was discontinued in 2010.

The nickname comes from the green bezel, which collectors compared with the frog from the Muppet Show. Kermit is the original green Submariner. The 2020 Starbucks 126610LV brought back the green-bezel and black-dial look, but with a ceramic insert, so it is priced separately.

Looking for the current model? The green-bezel Submariner Date made today is the 126610LV; see our 126610LV page.

Where the 16610LV price stands right now:

  • Fair value now: $10,200–$17,000.
  • Midpoint of recent market prices: $13,600.
  • Newest observation: October 15, 2026.
  • Observations behind the estimate: 131.

What affects the price

Bezel variation. The 16610LV had several insert variations. The first production, from 2003 to 2004, had the "Flat 4" (or "Fat Four") insert, where the 4 at the 40-minute mark has a flattened shape. Collectors treat these early inserts differently from later ones, so check which one a watch has and whether it is original.

Condition. Ranges by condition (a condition shows a range only once it has enough results of its own):

  • Unworn: $14,000–$18,900.
  • Excellent: $12,800–$17,300.
  • Good: $11,700–$15,800.
  • Fair: not enough market data yet.

An aluminium insert fades and scratches with wear. Some buyers like an evenly faded insert; a replaced insert is a different matter and should be disclosed.

Originality and box and papers. For a watch this age, original dial, hands and insert matter as much as the paperwork. A full set with matching serial is the easiest Kermit to sell.

Retail reference. We don't show a list price for this reference, because we only publish one we can confirm from a source we can cite.

Recent movement. Change over the past year: +7.4% over 12 months.

Tips for buyers

  • Confirm the reference is 16610LV, with a green aluminium insert and a black dial. A green dial or a ceramic bezel means a different watch.
  • Ask which insert variation it has. If the seller claims a Flat 4, ask for a close photo of the 40-minute marker.
  • Ask whether the dial, hands and insert are original or service replacements, and whether the watch has been polished.
  • Have an independent watchmaker check the watch before the return window closes.

Tips for sellers

  • Gather box, papers, receipts and service records. Note any parts replaced at a service.
  • Photograph the bezel insert closely, especially the 4 at the 40-minute mark, and the dial in daylight.
  • Don't swap or clean up the insert before selling; originality is part of the value.
  • Use the published price data on this page as a starting point, and get more than one offer.
