History
Introduced in 1953, the Submariner is undeniably the most recognisable Rolex product. Originally designed for deep sea diving, the Submariner has a committed following for its elegant style combined with a robust case. The Seadweller was a development of the Submariner, providing far greater water resistance, and for a while was the most water resistant wristwatch on the market, fitted with a pressure escape valve to guard against damage during very deep dives. The turnable bezel is a tool for measuring time whilst under water (or parking meters) and the oversized crown adds extra impermeability to the screw down feature which defines the oyster models. This model is fitted with a flip lock divers extension to the bracelet to enable to watch to be worn over a wetsuit.
