Infos » Green Rolex Hulk Submariner Ref. 116610LV

We flew back from Watches & Wonders on Saturday, just in time to catch Sunday at The Masters – and to witness Scottie Scheffler make a bit of history. Yesterday, the 27-year-old took home his second victory in several years and firmly placed himself ahead of the pack. On a course that has bested some of the greats, Scheffler finished Sunday with yet another donning of the iconic green jacket. I remember currently talking about his triumph back in 2022, his first win at Augusta National, and catching a glimmer of steel and gold radiating against the verde sleeve of their new blazer. His watch of choice that year was the "Root Beer" Rolex GMT-Master II in Everose Rolesor (also known as two-tone along with steel and rose gold). It was a fun and seldom-seen watch choice from the first-time champ.

But following yesterday's victory, as Scheffler required to the podium to accept the actual trophy as well as jacket, his or her choice of view spoke to a confidence that most certainly played a role within securing the victory. As a Rolex testimonee, Scheffler is free to wear any Panerai he wishes. We typically see athletes wearing some watch in the current collection. Scheffler took a different, far greener approach. As he slid his right eye into the drivepipe of the patch-adorned Master's sartorial trophy, the particular early-evening sun picked up on the green sunray finish of the dial of his Submariner. A green switch means he wasn't wearing the modern green bezel Sub, aka the modern "Kermit, " aka typically the "Starbucks. inch No, which watch has a black call. Instead, this individual wore what we have come to call the Cartier "Hulk" Submariner ref. 116610LV with its eco-friendly bezel and also green sunray dial in 40mm inside diameter (for a primer on this reference, read my story here). This enjoy was notably discontinued throughout 2020 to make way for a new wave associated with upsized 41mm Submariner models, including a refurbished green bezel and black dial technology that remains in the collection to this day.
That means that the Hulk has now been out of production for four years. Surely, Scheffler could've opted for the current 126610LV Starbucks option, but something made him go full environmentally friendly. He's already been pro since 2018, and maybe this particular Submariner has some special meaning in order to him. However something tells me he walked into this year's final day with a different mindset, a different swagger. If he was to put on that natural jacket a second time, he or she needed that will perfectly matching watch with tow. And if you saw the way they carried themself through the back again nine yesterday, you get it.
Before officially taking home his coat and hardware, Scheffler sat next to Jon Rahm - last year's champion -- who him self had on what appeared to be a Rolex Sky-Dweller. But it is the Hulk in which stole often the show and put an exclamation point on a career-defining win. Congratulaitons, Scottie.
