History and classification
“Bluesy” is a nickname from the collector scene, not an official Rolex name. In the specialist press, it is simply explained by the blue colour scheme. The line includes its predecessor 116613LB (2009 to 2020) as well as the older references 16803 (from 1984) and 16613. For these two references, only the version with a blue dial counts as “Bluesy”. The decisive criterion is yellow Rolesor with a blue dial and blue bezel. The full-gold version 126618LB is not included here, as the nickname is not documented for it. You will find an overview of the entire model family under Rolex Submariner. Other nicknames of the Submariner Date are “Starbucks” and “Cookie Monster”.
