Imagine this: you're pulling up in a first-generation Mercedes CLS, "Drop It Like It's Hot" blasting from the speakers, just about to collect cash from the cafés you own. What's on your wrist? A two-tone Submariner. But you've opted for the extra hustler slate-grey dial and diamond hour markers.

It's bold, it's flashy, and yes, it’s unapologetically out there. This watch combines the every day appeal of a Rolex sports model, topped off with that extra layer of special sauce.

This particular watch, the 11613, made in 2004—a transitional era for the Submariner. It features the upgraded solid-end link bracelet for a more modern feel, yet retains the classic lug holes that add a touch of vintage charm. The bracelet and for 2004 also the clasp, accented with gold, strike the perfect balance.

Condition-wise, it shows signs of wear but maintains its original sharpness and character.

A two-tone 40mm Rolex Submariner with diamonds for under $11k? Time to make that millennium dream a reality.
