Has Rolex Made A Big Mistake? HANDS ON The New 2020 Submariner

Hands-on review of the 2020 Rolex "Cermit" 126610LV (Ceramic-Kermit)! I am comparing it to the discontinued Hulk, look into the measurements and how it wears on the wrist and also explore the question, whether or not this might have been a big mistake by Rolex!

Diameter: 40,5mm
Lug to lug: 47,6mm
Clasp: 18,83mm
Lug width: 26,7mm
Width/Thickness: 12mm
Rolex Submariner Date 116610LV "Hulk"
Diameter: 40,2mm
Lug to lug: 47,6mm

The Submariner paradox: 'No one can get one, But everybody's got one'

[@ArmiIngratta]

Ya man, I have been lucky to have anyone I want, but its only because I buy other watches from my local watch shop. Example: Last week Me: hey watch shop I want a Daytona Watch Shop: Sure thing if you buy something else we can get you one. Me: Ok I want a Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Watch shop: Ok great you can pick both up next week 😂 Me: Wating list is a crop of shit So true story and pretty shit in my opinion!!! #justsaying Sorry for using the word "shit" 🙏🏻

[@mannycalavera2335]

People talk about the "exclusivity" of the brand. But in reality it is the most (and perhaps the only) common luxury watch. At least where I live you see them all the time.

The new version is much more delicate because of the design and proportions of the lugs towards the bracelet. Also the green dial of the Hulk was amazing but not for everyone’s taste and after few days I could no longer wear it or look at it as it was too green so there is no mistake here to my opinion.

[@WatchEric]

Great Review!! Enjoy your content.

[@klaushaunstrupchristensen7252]

I think the logic behind this new version is that the mega case has come in for criticism over the years for being to clumsy and the integration between lugs and bracelet not ideal. So Rolex have probably decided to slim down the lugs and improve the integration. By doing this the presence on the arm will have been reduced, so to counter this they have upped size slightly in other areas. So with a bit of luck and skill Rolex might have made it more elegant without reducing its presence. To top I up a better movement has been included.should be fine I think.

[@jackyoung7097]

The thicker bracelet whilst making the watch appear more curvaceous actually looks ugly and now I think my 114060 actually looks more elegant in a weird way. CHANGE MY MIND!

[@thegorn]

I disagree, but you’re entitled to your own opinion and there’s NO NEED TO CHANGE IT

Would it be possible to have videos about watch brands that are not Rolex? I do not understand why channels that say they are watch channels make videos only about Rolex.

[@kerrtattoo230]

Probably because Rolex released new watches 8 days ago and is very much de rigueur, But I hear ya regardless

[@Femiforfun]

BC HUXX is correct. I also understand your quandary. However, think about it from the perspective of a watch content creator. Rolex generates at least 5 times more traffic than any other brand when stated in the title. Once in a while, a channel releases a video that is not about Rolex because they are passionate about watches, but it will never generate as much attention, especially for smaller channels trying to grow. At the end of the day, Rolex gets the clicks.

[@BlackWipeout]

BC HUXX other brands has released new watches like Fortis etc. I think for having more views you need follow the Rolex sheep train ;)

[@SlapShotRegatta22]

The movement was a great move. The "41mm" case? We can live with it. But 21mm lugs? Simply unforgivable.

[@eiriknss3727]

After nothing been done to the Sub for over a decage it was long over due and a given. That was one thing you could take for absolute granted. If they didn't get a new movement in there now the Sub would be dead from competition by just about any other luxury watch brand that carry divers with more precise movements and better power reserves, i.e. Omegas Seamaster.

[@SlapShotRegatta22]

@@eiriknss3727 I agree that the Sub needed a refresh but it's a move in the wrong direction. Should've kept the 40mm diameter and the 20mm lugs and only changed the movement and the thin lugs.

[@domenicpellegrino4907]

Arvin Arakelian I agree, crazy isn’t it? Rolex limits release to keep customers from flipping for profit and the real customers are penalized on both ends.

[@damachine3]

@@domenicpellegrino4907 You think they limit release in order to prohibit flippers from making a profit? That isn't it at all. In fact, it's the opposite. If they wanted to limit the ability of flippers to make a profit then they would release more of them and that would instantly take away the profit in the market. Limiting the availability is exactly what creates the ability to make a profit. The reason they do it is to create hype. They do it to create something that is desirable that you can't get. It helps their brand. They protect their brand above everything. They don't really care about the flippers as much as you think. In fact, all of that hype and talk feeds back into the relevance of the brand. They don't care if people are mad at them for limiting supply, they only care that we are talking about them one way or the other. Irrelevance, and indifference, is the death of any brand.

[@ScubaSteveCA]

Actually they lose. The can’t cash in on the grey market and they’re losing out on potential sales because people are purchasing other brands. This action raises the market value of another brand. AD are getting caught selling to “preference buyers” too. The waiting list is bogus. Rolex has an open investigation on their watches immediately showing up on the grey market. Zeroing in on the AD with the most turnover.

[@omg_stoppit]

@@ScubaSteveCA Omega puts out more watched than Rolex and is not as profitable. Rolex works on scarcity which is key for their profits (despite making a million watches per year). They're not worried about losing money. They're the Ferrari of the watch world and no one who wants a Rolex will pick an Omega over a Rolex. It's like saying someone really wants a Ferrari so they'll settle on a Lamborghini. Is the Huracan a good car? Yes. Is the Huracan an F8 Tributo? No. The brand name is everything.

Great fact-based review here, Jenni! I think Rolex has made a distinction without a difference here with the "new" Submariner. To me, I think it's a bit sad that they are producing fewer dials and therefore saving money there but then moving prices higher. Feels like a cheap move to extract more dollars from customers rather than to put any real effort into the art of watchmaking and generating excitement that way. I'd take an Omega over these any day of the week and twice on Sunday. They look better, fit better, are made better.

[@thatotherguy4245]

Seems like Rolex has been run by investors instead of watchmakers for a long time. As you point out about Omega, better watches for cheaper prices are readily available, so there's no reason to obsess over this...if someone thinks spending 10+k on this instead of any number of better watches, then I feel sorry for them.

[@diegoreyes5019]

Yes it got increased i believe

[@PTR2K]

ive heard you can actually hear the rotor in the new submariners. Is this true? I imagine that would be really annoying if its noticeable

[@wataki_watcheswatakiwatche3160]

Thanks for the great video Jenni. It would be interesting to compare the the actual Kermit. It’s the cerachrom version after all. This is possibly the version that should have actually preceded the hulk?...

[@pranavkarol]

Great video. Rolex strategy is a really a mystery and we can get some clarity with your deep knowledge and insights. Bizzare strip club from a parallel universe ❤️ the reference 😀 too good👍

[@CarrotChronicles]

All this hype for something that’s a simple color swap while I sit here content with the red-headed stepchild, the Rolex Milgauss

[@magicman9321]

Who buys a Milgauss 😂

[@Mac_U]

@@magicman9321 people who want to have not eye catching Rolex !!!

[@magicman9321]

Mac U I guess

[@arkachatterjee5179]

Love my Milgauss. And my SS Sky Dweller.

[@UGA.D]

@@Mac_U Huh!!?? It's got a green sapphire crystal and an orange lightning seconds hand for Chrissake!

[@saschap6632]

I love the new green sub and ordered it right away.

[@Ranghocsing]

Hi ma’am Jenny can you compare it with the 43 seadweller I’m sure you will see the resemblance between the new Kermit case... thank you another great video

[@UGA.D]

Rolex's modern, stupid games take a sh!t on their legacy as far as I'm concerned. There's pre- quartz "crisis" Rolex, which commands respect, and post quartz "crisis" Rolex, which makes me feel sad for all the people still drinking the kool-aid and shelling out $6K MSRP for a simple 3-hand watch in steel.

12k if you actually want one

Rolex prices are something akin to Bitcoin prices in that the real value of the product does not have much to do with its selling price.

[@JMRabil675]

Thats why you buy Pagani/San Martin homages, or even better if you want a real watch, TUDOR, OMEGA. Rolex became normie with all the rap songs recently, so now all the millennial shithead smooth brains are spending their entire net-worth to be cool.

[@shermanmak]

So sad, Rolex is now officially the most "gutless" and boring watch brand around. New models? Basically a marketing play and colours.

[@UGA.D]

If Rolex began as Rolex is now... There wouldn't BE a Rolex now.

[@shermanmak]

@@UGA.D So true. It has such a strong brand that it can easily afford to try some new innovations and creativity. Which I believe would then drive the whole industry forward faster.

[@allan2098]

BUT, that's exactly why they are so popular. Simply because they have NOT changed anything radically in their products. A 1970 Datejust is basically, visually, a small 2020 model. The Sub has remained visually unchanged for its long duration. The new OP colours (OK, I'm with you on this one.) are radical for the brand but remember the popularity of coloured dials in the 70's, also realise that this will be BIG in the Asian market. Gutless and boring? Maybe so. Marketing play? They don't care about that. They are all about tradition and confidence in their brand.

[@UGA.D]

@@allan2098 Not changing a design does not make something popular. They're popular because so many people want to have something that few others can get so they can feel superior to other people. Go back and listen to this week's HODINKEE Radio (Episode 103). Ben Clymer, himself, says (at 5 min 47 sec) that you buy a Rolex so you can tell your friends "I got this and you didn't". That is why so many "secure" people feel like the majority of Rolex owners are "condescending jerks". We're not jealous of you... We're LAUGHING at you.

[@AntoineThisdale]

As always Jenni, you make amazing content. Thank you. I don't understand how Rolex figured this would be a better watch. It looks like the discarded idea from the "Hulk". Colored Bezel with black face really doesn't for me, unfortunately. Rolex has regressed, in my opinion. Oh well.

[@thesilveraura2177]

Exactly. The green dial is a thing of beauty, and only needs to be turned slightly on the wrist to appear darker, almost black. To now go with all black is taking the easy way out IMHO......especially after seeing what Rolex is capable of.

[@Arsenico18]

The best comparison so far. thanks Jenni :) anyway the Cermit it’s not so bad , looking at it , especially compared to the Hulk... but I won’t for sure be able to get one 😅😂

[@TopSecretVid]

Leftover green bezels and a much cheaper piano black dial and bigger price...hmmm..yeah.

[@Brunopanuno]

Totally agree! Rolex cutting cost and raising the prices, people losing their asses for those watches. Same for the OP 41, they moved from 39 to 41, so they can use the same case as in the DJ, again cutting cost. People: "ohh yeah OP41 im losing my ass for one, lets post it on IG" hahahah.

[@MrBasti1008]

[@henrywest7217]

(Your best guess) Will this eventually be the case fir the entire GMT line?

[@robspadre5519]

Jenni! You have a great channel. I’d love to see you do a collaboration with TGV over on The Urban Gentry! That would be an amazingly informative show with you two watch titans.
