After the great success of the Submariner "Kermit" reference 16610LV, a slightly updated Submariner version was launched in 2010 – this was reference 116610LV with a green dial and matching green Cerachrom bezel made from extremely hard and virtually scratchproof ceramic material. Its nickname "Hulk" was inspired by the fictional green superhero "The Incredible Hulk"; the reference designation "LV" stands for "Lunette Verde" (green bezel, in contrast to "LN", which stands for "Lunette Nero" and means black bezel).
