That's true. Its only Submariner or Submariner Date.
I don't know why most people call it Submariner No Date here in ASIA. Even at the AD. I once asked for a Submariner. The sales assistant told me "No stock". Then I reinstate that i wanted Submariner NO DATE. Then she went to check at the back and bring for me.

From my logic and sales perspective probably it’s easier to recognize the model according to date and no date tagline. Hence less communication required between the customer and the sales person.Haha. Couldn’t agree more.

Dont know if this has been covered on here but here is some interesting information which could be useful on the much loved iconic Rolex Submariner 14060 & 14060M "None Date"
Make: ROLEX

Model: 14060 (M)
Year: 1990 - 2012

What is the rehaut rrr mean ? I saw a thread selling mention its rare ? I have one 16610 M serial with rolex word engraved in the ring. Any difference from earlier sub ?
Rehaut rrr is referring to the engraving on the inner case, lined up to the 60 minute markers on the dial.. ROLEXROLEXROLEX all around, 12 o clock should have the coronet(Rolex crown),and serial number between circa 26 - 34 minute markers... roughly.. rehaut rrr engraving started circa M series onwards.. which was circa 2007 onwards..you can refer to rolex serial numbers here:

Yeah exactly mine 16610 . Any specialty for this batch?
Which year or series is your 16610? for the 14060 and 16610, there were years which did not have the rehaut engraving, and only from M series onwards, did they start to have the rehaut engraving. 16610 was produced between circa 1987 to 2010.. that's a long time, and only from circa 2007 onwards did the 16610 have engraving. So it all depends on which year your 16610 is from.

The 16610 was in production for a long time, but for those with rehaut engraving, i would not really consider it 'rare', but its certainly rarer than the those from earlier series. I feel rehaut engraving does provide some assurance of it being genuine, and off the cuff, I would say it sells easier. I'm not sure how to describe it bro, but I guess having the rehaut engraving provides layman a little bit more assurance its genuine, though some replicas and fake watches do have, but its usually more difficult to copy and perfect it. So, for sure the 16610 with rehaut engravings would command a higher value than those without. unless u are into tritium dials, but that's another issue and topic altogether.
Hope this helps?

Somehow the new case with maxi lugs just doesn't appeal to me.
it does tend to be kinda "fat", especially when you compare to the previous models like the 14060/16610 subs.. hence, the Submariner Kermit 16610LV with maxi dials but retaining the slimmer case has been so popular and prices have risen tremendously over the last 2 years.
