Rolex: they’re the biggest name in the luxury watch world, being renowned for manufacturing time pieces that are unbeatable in value and quality.
With 18k white gold hands and hour markers, a sapphire crystal window and a superbly well-made, automatic movement: Rolex Caliber 3130, each Rolex Submariner dive watch gives off a sense of utter perfection.
Whereas most steel watches use 316L stainless steel, Rolex is the only company to incorporate 904L steel, which is harder to produce but polishes up better, with a subtle whiteish tinge.
Sporting a 40 mm wide case, the Rolex Submariner is a small piece, although it wears quite large for it’s size thanks to the wide lugs, which make it more like a 42 millimetre watch.
On-wrist comfort is next level, with an oyster bracelet that wraps nicely around your wrist and features a Glidelock system that allows for quick and easy adjustment within a few mm.
The rotating ceramic bezel features precision cut markers, well defined teeth for easy gripping and makes a wonderfully crisp and high quality sounding click when turned.
Rolex Submariner watches are available in a variety of bezel and dial colour options as well as with or without date windows and the option for 18K gold to be incorporated into the case and bracelet.
Whereas earlier models utilise high end super luminova on their hands and markers, those produced since 2008 are equipped with high quality chroma-light, which lasts longer and is a spectacular blue colour, giving the watch a unique look in low light.
Without any doubt, the Rolex Submariner is the most luxurious, high quality – and also expensive dive watch in the world.
