Nicknamed “Starbucks” for the green-and-black colorway that mirrors the world’s most famous coffeehouse, this green-bezel Submariner is the only steel Sub that pairs a glossy black dial with a bright green Cerachrom bezel. Collectors who chased the discontinued aluminum “Kermit” and the beloved “Hulk” finally have the modern heir, with sharper lugs and a richer, longer-lasting green. Built for the enthusiast who wants genuine tool-diver pedigree wrapped in a colorway that turns heads from across the room.
Presents itself in brand new condition with no signs of wear. Green Cerachrom bezel reads like liquid emerald, its platinum-filled numerals and 60-minute scale catching the light with every turn, scratch-proof and UV-stable so the color never fades. Black lacquer dial sits deep and bottomless under the Cyclops, its Maxi markers and Mercedes hands glowing a long, even ice-blue once the lights drop. Oystersteel case and Oyster bracelet play satin-brushed surfaces against mirror-polished flanks, shifting from matte to gloss as the light rolls across the wrist.
Functions include hours, minutes, seconds, date, and a unidirectional dive-timing bezel. Screw-down Triplock crown winds the movement, quick-sets the date through the window at 3 o’clock in one position, then hacks the seconds for precise time-setting in the next. Unidirectional 120-click bezel turns only counter-clockwise, locking in elapsed bottom time the way a real diver’s bezel should.
Comes as a complete set, double-boxed with its inner presentation box, outer box, chronometer seal, warranty booklet with card holder, and swing tag.
Few watches earn a nickname that sticks the way this one has. Call it “Starbucks” or “Cermit,” the green-bezel Sub has become modern shorthand for quiet confidence, heir to the very dive watch James Bond made famous and to the green Submariners collectors now chase hardest. It rewards the owner who buys what he loves and wears it everywhere, the kind who already knows a grail when he feels it on the wrist.
