I just picked up my new Starbucks Mk2 from my local AD two weeks ago after an 18 month wait. I really love the Mk2 bezel, it really pops in daylight. Much prefer it over the darker, drab Mk1 bezel. It's more like the original Kermit. Didn't get the white tag either, no big deal. Some AD's give it, some AD's don't. We are both lucky to get a 70th anniversary version watch in the 70th anniversary year (2023). Very lucky indeed !!
I got the new reference 126610 LV 0002 last Friday and in my Ad which is in the UK they still give you the white tag , congrats on you watch, great piece
This watch has the same model number as the Starbucks , it’s the same watch , just a lighter bezel. It’s a toss up when it comes to which bezel to choose they both look great
When I bought my submariner I was in a “mixed” area, I brought a raggedy looking backpack into the store. I carried my person protection and I asked for no bag and just put the box in the backpack. I kept my head on a swivel walking back to my car. It’s too bad, It used to be that you could be proud to hold a Rolex bag with your new watch. I have both the new and older ceramic sub. The clasps are exactly the same length. This new one is just a mm wider.
sounds like you were just scary enough to make it outside of the mall . congratulations. only question , where the F are you going to actually wear it ? and if so , is it really worth putting your life and liberty up for grabs over something you can tell just looking at the sky ?
Some ADs don't give the white tag unfortunately. Coincidentally, I just got mine too but got it from another AD and they did give me the white tag and it does say 0002 at the end of the reference number but it's ok. It's nice to have but it won't affect its value in my opinion. Enjoy it! I know I will enjoy mine. Love the new mark 2 bezel tone btw. It's reminiscent of the kermit from the early 2000s plus it's a 70th anniversary so I think that makes it more special.
The Mk1 has a green bezel color, typical of Rolex brochures. The Mk2 has a lighter green color, but not as bright as the original 2003 Kermit with an aluminum bezel. Mk1 was produced for 3 years only ( 2020-2022/2023). In a future it will be a treat for collectors. MK 2 will be in production probably longer 2023-? Both the Mk1 and Mk2 are great Subs , the most sought after Submarines today. You're a lucky man.
I received my first Rolex 10 /23 ,and I received all tags and bezel guard, 126300, I guess each AD has there on rules , I requested the green SUB now the waiting game , I was told it may be soon, it's getting easier more available.
Congratulations on the watch. It is the same watch from it was introduced from 2020. The names Kermit/Cermit/Starbucks are what watch enthusiast call it. Rolex does not reference these names for their watches officially. So please do not say this is the actual Kermit vs the Starbucks.. it is the same reference number from when the 12 series Submariners were released. And like someone else said.. for the love of god hide that serial number.
I always get the white tag with my AD purchase. Rolex does not stop them from giving it to you. You should edit out your serial number or it’s going to end up on clone watches.
I own both mark 1 and 2 one month apart so both are pretty recent purchases, it's weird that I was able to keep everything like the whole sleeve, both tags, case back, crown and clasp plastic attached but then again my dealers know I'm not a flipper. The mark 1 is short lived less than three years as Rolex had a six month delay releasing them due to CoVid, I just can't decide which one to keep or stay with both.
My MK1 has the white tag that also has the reference # end in 0002. LVs always had that not new for a MK2. Green bezel, black dial Subs are all Kermits in my opinion. They've changed the shade of the Pepsi bezel 20 times over the 60 years and it's always a Pepsi.
My AD gave me the price tag. Although I got the MK1, on the price tag I have the 0002 on it. The serial number matches to my watch. So I don’t think that the 0002 applies for the MK2 generally
There isn’t a “70th anniversary Sub”. Rolex does not advertise or even acknowledge a 70th anniversary model. Rolex would give information if it were an anniversary model much like they did with the 50th. It’s just a slight color variation of the Starbucks released in 2020 which os a outstanding model.
Showing the serial number to the internet was not a good idea. Almost equivalent to sharing a credit card number except you can’t cancel your Rolex SN.
Hey man! Great video. Im thinking of getting a kermit as well because its just soo nice! But I am afraid that the green may be too much for everyday use? Im afraid i might get tired of the green easily. How has it been for you this past month? Does it limit you that much when it comes to your outfits, etc.? Thanks very much in advance
I’ll be honest. I thought the same originally. I have worn this watch every day since I got it. I have not worn anything else since. It goes with everything to my surprise.
I just came across your video I’ve been looking for a comparison for the new style green bezel congratulations on the pickup, but if I may say you may want to edit your serial number out of this video, awesome watch enjoy!!!!!
kermit MK1 green look really like frog/moss colour, vintage classic yellowish green, i ever bought 2009 kermit at 2015 and sell it again becoz dont like the colour, that time 2015 im really like hulk, yachtmaster choco, daydate 2 roman choco, but i dont have the money😢
No, they just opened a month ago. I kept going by and creating a relationship with my sales rep. Since they are new they didn’t have a customer base. It helped me a lot
Hello sir! Great video. Maybe I am confused but is this watch not the Starbucks? I thought the Kermit was discontinued in 2010 replaced with the Hulk and now with that being discontinued in 2020, Rolex released the Starbucks, correct? I just recently asked my AD for the reference 126610LV. She said she added me to the interest list. Yours has a -0002 after the reference number. Is this a different watch than the one that I ordered? I apologize I am just very confused. The watch looks beautiful, congratulations.
Nice man enjoy your new watch. How long did you wait for the Watch. I am currently on the register of interest for the Starbucks coming up to 2 and a half years wait time for me. I have bought 3 Rolex models from the AD including the Bat girl. I think the AD can not be getting that many of these watches through the door. Takes to long. Hopefully soon.
Watches of Switzerland is the same Company as Mayors & I think another Company. You have 0 purchases with all these affiliated AD’s? If that’s true that is A good salesmen
@@josephs6093 0. New store opened up. I went in a few times and always spoke to the same salesman. That’s all. Stay consistent and make sure they know you’re not a flipper. If they see you’re actually an enthusiast then you’ll get what you want
Would you see you find this watch more appealing or attractive then the Rolex Hulk? I had the Rolex Hulk but I sold it because it’s too green & you get sick of it.
@@josephs6093 I think it’s the perfect balance honestly. The green is a nice shade and I do not see myself getting bored of it. The thing for me is I also have other watches in the collection as well. I like to switch off. Sometimes I wear more than 1 per day depending on what I’m doing. I am crazy like that 😂
Sir congratulations on your new Rolex watch but I must tell you should delete this video immediately because you have shown the serial number and this could be used on the replica Rolex watches ⌚️

I just bought a submariner like yours and only paid $1000. Funny enough, it had the same serial number as yours. 😂😂
You shouldn’t show your serial number. Replica makers can use that serial for instance.
Seriously, novice mistake
lol you guys crack me up, replica makers have easy access to thousands of serial numbers, they couldn't care less about an extra
I would cut out the serial # you don’t want yours to be the next replica #
Yah take that video off. Serial number is being exposed
Too late

Nice video, thanks for sharing. I got the same watch last week. I had to pay a premium, but well worth it. Beautiful watch. MK2 over MK1 all day.
Congratulations! Well worth it either way!
Just picked the same watch up this week. Waited about a month for it. In love with it!
I love it!
Hey, how were u able to get it in just a month?
@@lyes.official just got lucky!
@@lyes.official I’m not sure. I think it’s because of my career and hobbies. I got along well with the Sales associate

@@torqueofthedevil8145I think one year

0002 indicates it is the LV. 126610LN-0001 is the black sub date.
I own MK2 from AD on 2023/11/2 ! And I sold MK1 8 months ago.
Yeah apparently you shouldn’t show the serial number.
Anyway.
Congratulations- this is very inspiring!
I think I want this or gmt master black & blue.

That’s a difficult decision man!
I got the white tag with mine. Gonna check if it has the 002 when I get home.
Et vous faites quoi avec l’étiquette vous la mettez autour du coup 😂😂
Beautiful watch and quite the score.. Congratulations and wear it in good health..

Thanks for the reminder on that clasp and bracelet. McDonald's style upsize.
GREAT 2023 ROLEX SUBMARINER KERMIT WATCH - UNBOXING + REVIEW !!!!
Thank you!

You may have a MK2 then and not realize it.
My MK1 2021 ends in 0002. I believe it refers to the model change from the original green aluminium bezel.
@@kramerthewatchguy i am pretty sure I have the MK1 since my AD showed me at the same time the MK2 and I could choose. I got it this year in may 2023
I got mine in February 2021, It says -0002 on the receipt.

I need the secret to get this at an AD. Did you have prior purchase history?
No, they just opened a month ago. I kept going by and creating a relationship with my sales rep. Since they are new they didn’t have a customer base. It helped me a lot

The Starbucks was replaced a few months ago by this watch. This is a different shade of green. Same ref # as before
I actually like the deeper more emerald green of the “Starbucks” much more.
I think most people agree with you. Also since the darker green was only 2020-2023 it will be very rare in the future. Good buy if you can swing it.
@@kramerthewatchguy I actually had one but recently sold it for the Root Beer. I just wasn’t a fan of the large clasp on the Sub.
My grail watch at this time. I had an SD4K that I loved but it was a little chunky
0002 represents the LV. It’s not the mark II. I bought mine in 2022 and the hang tag has 126610lv-0002 on it but it the original green.

Total time maybe 4 years. Originally on the list for a hulk. Then switched to Starbucks when hulk discontinued
Except that there was no Baselworld this year, nor since 2019 - so wtf are you talking about?
Watches and wonders. Excuse me
Brudda!!! Congrats! Which WoS did you get it at?
NJ American dream
thats amazing! It looks gorgeous on that side of town. Enjoy that piece!
should the bezel go up and down if you press it
Not sure what you mean by that. It’s unidirectional which means it only can spin 1 way.
if you press the bezel does it go down like it is on spring?
@@kramerthewatchguy
Hi Kramer are you A big customer for your local AD or did you just request that watch?
Also how long was the wait?
I was a new customer for that AD
