Jay (Eire) shares a cozy winter moment, pairing a classic hot chocolate with his Rolex 'Hulk' Submariner. This post resonates with collectors who appreciate the simple pleasures of life alongside their horological passions. It highlights how luxury timepieces integrate seamlessly into everyday moments, even those as comforting as a warm drink on a cold day.
The Submariner Date reference 116610LV, introduced in 2010, is distinguished by its vibrant green dial and matching green Cerachrom bezel. This model replaced the previous 16610LV, known as the "Kermit," and marked a significant update to the Submariner line with its "Maxi Case" and ceramic bezel insert. It represents a modern interpretation of the Submariner, offering enhanced durability and a distinct aesthetic within the collection.
This reference features an Oystersteel case measuring 40mm in diameter, housing the automatic Caliber 3135. The movement provides a power reserve of approximately 48 hours. The watch is fitted with a sapphire crystal that includes a Cyclops lens over the date display, and it is water-resistant to 300 meters. The unidirectional rotating bezel is crafted from green Cerachrom ceramic, known for its scratch resistance and color stability.
Appealing to collectors interested in modern Rolex sports watches with a unique colorway, the 116610LV is often referred to as the "Hulk" due to its green coloration. It stands out from the more traditional black or blue Submariner models, offering a bolder visual presence. This reference was produced for a decade, becoming a notable entry in the Submariner's evolution before its discontinuation.

As you already know I don't really drink a lot of coffee. But you might not have known this - I enjoy making and consuming hot chocolate! And everyone enjoys the latte art on coffee and I totally forgot one can put latte art on a hot chocolate! You've inspired me! Now I have to go dig out that coffee machine since I'd have to use the milk steamer! Where did I put that coffee machine? I can sometimes make my hot chocolate every day for a week and I still don't get bored of my hot chocolate! I bas
This is cold by California standards! At night, it goes down as low as the low 40 degrees Fahrenheit (under 5*C)! I have to turn on my heated seats! And the electric car complains its too cold! The car literally has a snowflake icon on the display next to the battery. Electric cars consume a lot more electricity in cold weather since they have to warm their batteries (mine uses a super inefficient resistance heater to warm a coolant which is then pumped to the battery - more efficient electric c
And we had a big bar of chocolate and a big bottle of Macallan after dinner. No hot chocolate though. Next time Ed!
I do not like the cold.
