Datejust 1612 fake

I believe everyone has felt the recent Rolex market, and the crazy market behavior is really incomprehensible. If you want to talk about where the story of Rolex being hyped begins, the first thing that many people may think of is the green glass. Released in 2007, this watch was once one of the most premium models in Rolex, and at a time when Submariners and Daytonas could still be purchased at a discount, owning a green glass was undoubtedly the “most beautiful boy” in the crowd.

But the good times didn’t last long, as if the myth was shattered overnight, and the green glass also fell from the crazy market price to the bottom. However, recently, green glass has taken advantage of this wave of heat to be pushed back to a high position; although whether there is a real trading volume is unknown, it can’t help but feel its “ups and downs” experience. Today, let’s take a look at what green glass, known as the “veteran of speculation,” has experienced.

The official name of the series to which green glass belongs is “Milgauss”, and as the name suggests, it focuses on excellent anti-magnetic properties. This series’ history can be traced back to the fifties of the last century, and with the development of the times, people are increasingly exposed to magnetic fields in their daily lives, which has also given rise to the demand for professional anti-magnetic watches. It was against this background that the Engineer Ref.666 and the original Rolex Magnet were born.

After half a century of evolution, the modern “green glass” Ref. 116400GV, as we know it, was unveiled at Baselworld 2007. The highlight of this watch is the unique green crystal, which is unique not only to Rolex‘s many products but also unique to the entire bezel, making it instantly recognizable.

To become a speculative product, it must have scarcity. At that time, it was rumored that the process of manufacturing the special “green glass” was extremely difficult, so the production of the model was low, and the production of the model would be discontinued in the short term. It is precisely because of the so-called “scarcity” that green glass had the capital to soar in price. However, it turned out that not only did green glass not stop production, but it has been sold since 2007, which can be regarded as the most “lifelong” model in the Rolex family.

However, “scarcity” is only one aspect, and compared with other models of the same period from Rolex, green glass still has a certain advantage. For example, the “Green Submariner” Ref. 16610LV was still an aluminum bezel, which was criticized by many players because of its easy wear. It was not until the 2010 Ref. 116610LV that Rolex equipped it with a more durable ceramic bezel. Also released in the same year as green glass was the Yacht-Master II, which was also not favored at the time due to its large diameter of 44 mm. In horizontal comparison, green glass is indeed a highly recognizable model of 2007 with no obvious shortcomings.
