Rolex was founded in 1908 by Hans Wilsdorf in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland. Over the years, Rolex has become an iconic watch brand known for its high precision, handcrafted quality and superior watch design. The Rolex Submariner is one of the top watches produced by Rolex and is considered by many to be the king of all luxury dive watches.
The Rolex Submariner was first brought to the public in 1954 at the Swiss Watch Fair. The watch was primarily designed for divers and is known for its ability to resist extreme conditions. The Rolex Submariner has been well tested over the years. The watch has been taken on many sea and land expeditions by explorers where it has successfully performed in extreme cold and repeated underwater use.
The Rolex Submariner has been modified and improved upon since its inception in 1954. The Submariner has been updated over the years with improved water resistance to 300 meters or 1000 feet, a date complication, new watch movements, as well as some changes in the appearance of the watch.
The newest Rolex Submariner models are available in all stainless steel, in two tone steel and yellow gold, in all yellow gold and in white gold. The watches are produced with either a blue, black, or green watch dial and bezel. Additionally, some Rolex Submariner models have a Serti dial which is basically a dial with diamonds or gemstones as the markers.
The latest version of the Submariner features watch hands and markers that are somewhat larger than the previous models. Additionally, the hands and markers are covered with a SuperLuminova coating so that they will glow blue in the dark.
The Submariner features a unidirectional bezel that allows an underwater diver to see an accurate indication of diving time. The bezel is made of cerachrome, which is an extremely hard ceramic material. The Submariner bezel is corrosion-resistant, practically scratch proof, and retains its color over time. Since the bezel is so hard, Rolex must carve the numerals and markers on the bezel before it completely hardens. The Submariner bezel has a diameter of 40mm.
Rolex invented the Triplock winding crown to ensure that watches such as the Rolex Submariner are waterproof to 300 meters. The Triplock winding crown uses a triple-seal system along with a slightly larger than normal screw down crown to protect the watch movement.
The new Rolex Submariner watch models feature a new watch bracelet clasp. The Rolex Glidelock clasp is an improved clasp design that has a solid clasp that can be adjusted by simply sliding the adjustment pin forward or backward. The watch bracelet can be incrementally increased in size up to 21mm in this manner.
The Rolex Submariner is an attractive, yet highly functional watch. The watch is designed to handle the wear and tear of someone with an active lifestyle. But, the Submariner will also look great when going out for any occasion. That s why the Rolex Submariner is one of the most popular luxury watches in the world.
