Rolex Submariner Review!

[@jwpirih1]

I bought my first Rolex a month ago and will say that the quality and workmanship is like nothing I have ever had or experienced. This classic looks and makes you feel good when you wear it.

[@ternsjo]

+James Pirih Rolex definitely makes high quality pieces so I can imagine that. Thank you for commenting, and enjoy your new watch. You might like my other watch reviews on my channel.

[@veilofmayaa]

Awesome video and thanks for using a nice camera/phone camera. The picture is crystal clear and its one of the few videos that does justice to this piece of art. Wear it in good health!

[@ternsjo]

+bornofosiriss Thanks for commenting, your feedback is much appreciated! Please keep in mind, these aren't my watches. (I wear a plastic Swatch and a vintage Omega from 1954) which I've also reviewed on my channel :) Hope you have a great day!

[@veilofmayaa]

ohh, my bad. Nevertheless great review!

[@mahamza86]

Rolex Submeriner is also my favorite time piece. It's copied by so many brands yet the original still has its charm.

[@ternsjo]

+Hamza Khawaja Thanks for commenting. This isn't my favourite timepiece but it is a great one. Very true, I think this piece has inspired the most number of copy cats in the industry. Thoughts on my Lange 1 watch review?

[@lennart8426]

Everything you have said about why people buy a Rolex reflect my thoughts about this topic. It's very sad, that people buy it just to show off their wealth. I am happy to see that other people appreciate these watches for their (almost) perfection and not just status. Before I bought my first Rolex I studied all the watches, their history and the way they are working. I watched videos on how to build the movement just to understand, why a watch can cost that amount of money and I think everyone who thinks about buying a Rolex should do this. Very good review and a very well said statement.

[@ternsjo]

Thank you for commenting and sharing your thoughts, much appreciated. I believe the watch industry is very divided in terms of customers and their intent of purchasing a watch. Maybe that would make for an interesting separate video? :)

[@tsepangbereng3144]

Iconic! For better or for worse, it is both luxurious and practical in that you can take it from the warehouse workshop to an intimate dinner with clients. A bargain buy in the luxury watches game in my opinion.

[@boltyrulez]

I will own this timepiece one day :) great review

[@ternsjo]

+Nick Bolt Thanks for commenting, I appreciate your feedback! I think this is a classic/beautiful watch.

[@johnstrachan2726]

Same here, I'm close now.

[@ThanhLai5]

You will, for sure ;)

[@rocket3193]

Nick Bolt me two

[@gtrman9706]

I buy Swiss high end watches that I like the style of. They are great to wear and make good investments. I don't care if people like them or not, it's for my own life choice.

[@michaelturner7949]

An eloquent presentation. I agree with your opinions because I have worn various Submariner Date models since March 1975 without becoming bored. Its design has encouraged me to form a collection comprising derivatives such as the Sea-Dweller, Deepsea, the two steel GMT models and the Explorer II.

[@aleramone23]

Rolex Submariner, Omega Speedmaster, Tag Heuer Monaco, Cartier Santos. Iconic watches.

[@richardcummins6314]

Just bought my first Rolly. A Submariner date. Like the review says its a watch which looks great, keeps great time and is a worker. Can't believe I waited so long to get one.

[@michelecalo1107]

Fantastic review indeed! In my opinion the ceramic Sub it's the perfect everyday watch. Perhaps also the perfect single piece collection watch. As you said, it looks good in every occasion and it can survive in pretty much all the situations. Yes, it's expensive but it lasts you a lifetime! Again, excellent video. Regards, Michele.

[@ternsjo]

+Michele Calò Hi Michele, thank you very much for your comment, I l appreciate it a lot! Indeed, this sub is one of those rare pieces that can almost complete an entire collection by itself.

[@rnunez70681]

+Erik Ternsjö I agree. This watch and the Rolex polar Explorer II (not the new 42mm, the previous model) are probably the only watches in the world with a complete range of versatility. from the beach to the night club to the board room and heck maybe even to the opera. I don't like the ceramic bezel because it looks more glossy and dressy that the mate tool look of the steel bezel, which I have. I have had 2 subs and I'm now thinking of getting the Explorer. The white dial and clean bezel and slimmer case may even be a better every day watch. We'll see.

[@ternsjo]

Thanks for contributing to the conversation! Well said with the versatility. It's definitely rare to be able to say that about other watches of the same caliber. I'll try to review the Rolex polar Explorer II that you mentioned because i am not too familiar with it. Design wise, I prefer the Submariner, but we'll see when I get my hands on one. Have a good day :)

[@rnunez70681]

You too! Looking forward to that review of the polar!

[@ternsjo]

rnunez70681 I'll see what I can do. In the meantime, I have several other videos planned for release in the near future :)

[@blacktornado1999]

A classic timepiece and that is recognisable all over the world. Love the Rolex bracelet clasp. I wish more watch makers would include it in their clasp designs as well.

[@ternsjo]

+blacktornado1999 Hi, thanks for your feedback, I appreciate it. Well said and I agree with you, this clasp is great.

[@metinarikan20]

This is the best sub review i've seen. Thanks a lot Erik!

[@ternsjo]

+Apex Cordis I'm glad you liked the video! You might enjoy my other reviews and explanation videos on my channel :)

[@dlhussain81]

Totally agree with your comments! I prefer the GMT over the sub. Sub is essentially a time (plus date) watch since no one really dives with it. Most buy a sub due to its ubiquity therefore to maximise recognition from others. Very sad indeed

[@ternsjo]

Thanks for commenting, and sharing your feedback. You might enjoy my reviews of more understated watches on my channel :)

[@georgiebungle2252]

DLH I like the all brushed steel bracelet on the sub

[@PhobiaPhobic]

Again, great video! I love the very pleasant way in which you give your presentation. It make the video very nice to watch.

[@ternsjo]

+PhobiaPhobic Thank you so much, your feedback is much appreciated! Stay tuned for more videos coming soon :)

[@Nontacticalboy]

Awesome review, to be honest i think people buy Rolex for the status as well, doesnt matter if they want to admit or not. Ofcourse the quality is a plus. Buying a $300 Kate Spade bag is by quality good enough in comparison to a $80,000 Hermes, which ofcourse are superior in quality. But the difference in quality does not equate the price difference. Same as rolex sub ($8000)in comparison to a seiko sumo($400). I own and love both of them.

[@davidofglenbrook4487]

This is the best luxury sport diver ever made. The ultimate grail watch.

[@jaysonj3122]

A really well put together review. Great lighting and shots too. 10/10, thank you.

[@ianwoollard2063]

There's no denying the superb quality and craftsmanship of these watches.The design is so good that there is very little to change from year to year. It's expensive yes, but it's fantastic and a true icon of modern watchmaking. As for the whole money but no brain crowd who like to show off,well don't they generally gravitate towards the best? Pathetic but true......

[@ternsjo]

Thanks for commenting and sharing your thoughts. You might enjoy my other video reviews on my channel :) Or a video review of my own watch (a vintage Omega from 1954 or a plastic Swatch)

[@amintaslneto]

Great review. Yes there is also controversy around Rolex but the truth is Submariner is an icon for itself in my opinion. Even if it was made by another brand it would be successful considering its remarkable technical a aspects

[@ternsjo]

+Amintas Neto Well said, thank you for commenting and sharing your thoughts! It is much appreciated!

[@jaycoomar4165]

nice review bro. props for showcasing a few different outfits with the watch!

[@ternsjo]

+Jay Kumar Thanks for the comment, I appreciate it. You might enjoy my other watch reviews and explanation videos on my channel

[@qin_watches]

Great reviews. Do you purchase your watches for your reviews or do you get your footage at shops?

[@ternsjo]

+fujiquinn Hi, thank you for commenting, I appreciate it! I answer your question at the end of the video :) Most of my videos are filmed in shop. Any particular watch you would like me to review?

[@qin_watches]

oh, I must have clicked off too soon. i don't necessarily have a recommendation, but if you ever get your hands on a Lange, i'd love to see you review it!

[@ternsjo]

+fujiquinn No worries, I have made 2 video reviews of a Lange and 1 review of a Glashutte that you might like. My favourite is the Lange 1 which you can take a look at on my channel :)

[@marksikun]

Date or No Date ? Thanks

[@ternsjo]

+marksikun Thanks for commenting. Date feature is nice to have but in this case it might come at the expense of Rolex instantly recognisability. You might enjoy my other watch reviews and explanation videos on my channel.

[@Teachering]

I like this video review. I'm a person who in the last year has been considering the purchase of a Rolex. I've looked at the GMT, closely examined the Datejust 41 and SS version in 36mm. And I've looked at several models of the Submariner. Do I go for a "no date" or perhaps a two-tone model? Or should I settle for the 116610LN that you've highlighted in this video? This is no easy decision for me. It's a lot of money. The entire exercise is beginning to wear me down. Just thought I'd make comment.

[@ternsjo]

Hi, thanks for commenting and sharing your thoughts. Your questions are good but impossible for me to answer as they involve a lot of personal opinion and design preference. My recommendation is to try the watches you're thinking about in shop and then think about it some more, and then go for the one that you feel most comfortable with and the one that seems better value for money. Or, you can just skip the watch all together :) You might enjoy my other watch reviews / explanation videos on my channel.

[@Teachering]

Thank you, Erik. You offer good advice.

[@xSpruce]

+Erik Ternsjö I enjoy your polite review style. Thank you for your videos.

[@ternsjo]

+xSpruce Much appreciated, thanks for sharing! :)

[@MrAstroshot]

Good video. How would you rate the Tudor Black Bay vs the Sub?

[@ternsjo]

+Michael O'Connell Hi, thanks for commenting. I haven't spent enough time with the Tudor watch to compare them; however, that is a video I would very much like to work on. I really like the Tudor watch and would like to review it. I'll see what I can do :) Regarding design, from a quick point of view, I really like the Tudor and prefer the multiple straps available.

[@craigeric]

What's your wrist size? Awesome review by the way! :)

[@antrungvn]

Very good review! Tks you 😍

[@ternsjo]

I'm glad you enjoyed it, thanks for your feedback!

[@anowerhosen3332]

Erik Ternsjö

[@BoiAli]

Great review, but if possible I would LOVE to see you review a Richard mille.

[@camerongupta6994]

Honestly if you could only have one Rolex, this would be a good choice. However I prefer the classic no date submariner. Besides, if you need a date function then get a datejust 36 or 41mm because that watch is more versatile

[@ternsjo]

+Wewa :D Hi, thanks for commenting, I greatly appreciate it! I would also like to review a Richard Mille. Maybe soon, stay tuned :)

[@ternsjo]

+Cameron Gupta Thanks for your feedback, I appreciate it. This is indeed a great piece. I also like the no date version. I disagree that the Datejust is more versatile as I feel it is much more dressy and less sporty.

[@BoiAli]

:D

[@camerongupta6994]

+Erik Ternsjö interesting

[@MN-cw7nh]

Hey. Nice video!! What is your wrist size??

[@bigsykedaddy999]

Anyone else not like the way he says ROOOEEE LEX?

[@mcmiloy3322]

I love your videos! Will we ever see any more of them? Thanks in advance

[@ternsjo]

+Mcmiloy thanks for commenting and sharing your motivational comment :) I have more videos in the pipeline and hope to have them uploaded relatively soon. Hope you have a great day!

[@nicksundby]

Bit like a Ferrari - great product, often bought by unpleasant people.

[@alex-nv8rk]

What is your wrist size?

[@jamesgray5003]

Yes to all you said

[@ternsjo]

+James Gray Thank you for commenting. You might enjoy my other watch reviews and explanation videos on my channel :)

[@paulkent7745]

Very good review thanks

[@ternsjo]

+Paul Kent Hi, thanks, I appreciate the compliment. You might also enjoy my other watch videos on my channel.

[@paulkent7745]

Yes I will take a look, but I really like this review as I am getting one in three months, October.

[@ternsjo]

+Paul Kent I'm glad you enjoyed my review. That's exciting, I'm sure you will like it a lot!

[@JohnDoe-yl2rw]

Nice. Perhaps a detail Rolex Sea Dweller 4000( 116600) review too? And a (116610LN) Submariner vs Sea dweller 4000

[@ternsjo]

Great idea, thanks for commenting. I'd like to, and i'll see what I can do :)

[@JohnDoe-yl2rw]

Wonderful. Many thanks Erik.

[@abajaj1510]

Waiting for my steel sub (no date) from AD......

[@DD-hj3sj]

A Bajaj haha good luck.

[@mrfragranceparis]

Haha back in 2016 the submariner and other rolexes divers watches were still available in every shop 😀

[@pooky911]

The bezel isn't aligned with the dial :midlyinfuriating: Good review otherwise :)

[@ternsjo]

+Fr0m4G3 Wasn't my intention. Thanks for your feedback! :)

[@ahmettanriverdi5238]

2 seconde per day? Woow! My Seiko 5 frankenmonster +10 seconds per day.

[@tomsmyth5138]

Do you dive much bro?

[@ternsjo]

+tom smyth Haha, thanks for commenting. To answer your question... never :)

[@ternsjo]

Perhaps that the Rolex Sub is a divers watch... Thanks for commenting :)

[@alexandrohutt8421]

Vad jobbar du med bror? Cash finns..

[@ternsjo]

Tack för kommentaren. De är inte mina klockor. Jag filmar bara. Du kanske uppskattar min review av min egen klocka på min channel (en Swatch i plast) :)

[@krillton]

8000$?! Haha, more like 3000 baht.

[@ternsjo]

That would be a nice deal. You might enjoy my other videos on my channel.

[@Rattus1]

It makes you a bit sad huh?

[@ternsjo]

+B BC The watch snob attitude, yes. Otherwise, no, not at all. Thanks for commenting :)

[@unkown7804]

I am 12 and i have this

[@ternsjo]

+Pepsi That must feel nice.. You might enjoy my other videos on my channel. Hope you have a great day!

[@Zestypanda]

Pepsi sure....

[@markusstromberg8933]

Är du svensk?

[@ternsjo]

Hej, ja är svensk. Hoppas du tycker om mina videor.

[@mikehoward5004]

What about Rolexes magic 904L stainless steel? It's great stuff, but cost under $40 per lb. All that extra expense must be profit.

[@toddaod295]

Rolex envy is like dick envy. Guys with small dicks want a bigger one...good luck to you

[@davidcisneros5771]

This one is a fake! The 1000 ft printed area on the dial has a wrong font printed for the FT.

[@ternsjo]

+David Cisneros You're wrong, but thank you for commenting and sharing your feedback. You might enjoy my other videos on my channel :)

[@Zestypanda]

Erik Ternsjö It is fake. Open the back.

[@joshcortez206]

HE is right, the new ceramic model has a different font for the FT. This watch looks real, up until analyzing the FT.

[@toddaod295]

And the m after 300 is not at the proper distance from 300, it's right next to the 300...fake!

[@pandabg1979]

There are several versions of 116610LN all with different fonts and spacing beteeen 1000ft and 300m currently in production, only Rolex knows why, but that is the fact!

[@ghstdino921]

Rich dude))

[@ccw1961]

Way too blingy. I stopped looking at Subs past the 41060

[@ternsjo]

+ccw1961 Hi, thanks for commenting, I appreciate hearing your thoughts! The classic sub I don't think is particular blingy; however, with all the custom ones like with diamonds, yes, those aren't particularly discreet. If you don't like blingy, you might enjoy my numerous Patek reviews on my channel. Have a great day :)

It's pronounced, "Submarine-er," not "sub-mariner." A submariner (first pronunciation) works underwater, whereas a sub-mariner (not a real word) would be something less than a mariner. Please see the authorized Rolex add to hear the proper pronunciation.

[@ternsjo]

+Chrystal Powers Thanks for the comment and feedback, much appreciated.
