As Scottie Scheffler hoisted the Claret Jug at Royal Portrush, a sharp look revealed the green-and-black Rolex Submariner 126610LV—nicknamed the “Kermit” or “Cermit”—on his wrist. This reference features a green Cerachrom bezel paired with a black dial—a visual cue that Scheffler chose understatement with edge.
Although he famously wore the all-green “Hulk” Submariner during his Masters win in 2024—a watch with matching green dial and bezel (ref. 116610LV)—this time he opted for the subtler black‑dial variant, signaling evolution in his watch choices. The 126610LV is the modern 41 mm successor to the earlier 40 mm design, powered by Rolex’s Caliber 3235 with a 70‑hour power reserve and refined proportions
Scheffler has now worn both green Submariners in major wins—each one a stylistic marker. His choice of the black‑dial “Kermit” at golf’s oldest major underscores a composed yet confident approach. It’s a careful nod to heritage, modernity, and personal branding, all without speaking loudly.
In a sport where every detail is magnified, Scheffler’s wristwear speaks volumes. The Claret Jug, the championship, and that green‑bezel Submariner came together in one iconic image—anchoring the narrative of dominance, precision, and taste.
