This replica Rolex Submariner 116659SABR Diamond Dial copies the fully stone-paved dial with blue hour markers of the genuine 116659SABR and matches it with an iced-out case and bracelet. Instead of painted luminous dots on a lacquered dial, this configuration sets stones across the entire dial face and marks the hours with round blue stones, creating a field of light from edge to edge. The 116659SABR base provides the white-gold Submariner silhouette, here in 18k white gold, and the diamond-set case and bracelet push the concept to its logical extreme. Every visible surface reflects and refracts.

A diamond-set dial changes the readability equation entirely. Time is read through the stone pattern rather than against a flat background. The blue stone markers and the hands need to contrast sharply with the paved surface to remain legible, which this version handles through polished hand finishing against the textured stone field. The bezel picks up the same blue: blocks of blue baguettes alternate with clear ones around the ring, tying the outer edge to the markers on the dial.

Rolex Submariner 116659SABR Diamond Dial: Inside the Movement

The clone Cal. 3135 automatic caliber running inside operates the same as any Submariner: hours, minutes, running seconds, and a date window at 3 o’clock. The diamond-set dial does not interfere with the movement function. What it does change is the entire visual identity of the watch. A paved dial turns the Submariner into something that reads more like high jewelry than a dive tool. For a version that keeps traditional luminous markers with a colored dial, the Rolex Submariner 126610LN Tiffany Dial offers an alternative direction. Both are part of the broader Submariner range but they serve different aesthetic goals.

What Sets It Apart

Fully diamond-set dial Submariners are the most visually intense versions available. There is no negative space on the face, no clean area for the eye to rest. This all-or-nothing approach appeals to collectors who want maximum impact from a single wrist piece. The 116659SABR frame gives it a foundation of correct Submariner proportions, so despite the heavy stone work, the shape remains immediately recognizable. Rolex did make the 116659SABR with this pavé dial, sapphire hour markers and a sapphire-and-diamond bezel; the diamond-set case and bracelet are the factory’s own addition, so this is a factory variant of a catalog reference. This replica Submariner iced out in the diamond-set dial configuration is the furthest the reference goes from its tool-watch origins.

Rolex Submariner 116659SABR Diamond Dial Replica FAQ

How much is the Diamond Dial Submariner 116659SABR super clone?

The Diamond Dial costs $1,159 and is made in super clone quality alone, with no A-grade. Here the money goes on the dial as much as the outside: a face paved edge to edge with round blue stone hour markers, a bezel of blue and clear baguettes in alternating blocks, stones over the 40mm case and the bracelet, and a clone Cal. 3135 with 48 hours of power reserve.

Are the stones on the Diamond Dial Submariner real diamonds?

No, they are diamond-look stones, and the blue markers are not sapphires. “Diamond Dial” is simply the trade name for a fully paved face, and the same kind of stones cover the bezel, case and bracelet. Under the setting the case is 18k white gold, so you are paying for the look of a jeweller-iced Rolex, not for gems.
