The Diver's Watch

Submariner

The Submariner appeared in 1953 and was the first wristwatch for divers that was waterproof to a depth of 100 meters. In the history of watchmaking, the Submariner marked a historic turning point and became an absolute reference among diving watches.

Legendary Waterproofness

Oyster Case

The Oyster case is a milestone in the history of watchmaking. Invented by Rolex in 1926, it was the world's first waterproof watch case. Bezel, caseback and winding crown are screwed watertight to the middle section. Form and function are perfectly matched - typically Rolex.

The robust legend

Oyster Bracelet

Introduced at the end of the 1930s, the metal bracelet is particularly robust and still the most popular bracelet from Rolex. It belongs to the standard equipment of all professional (sport) models, but is also used in some classic models.

In the right time

The return of the 80s

Everything comes back. At some point. Even my grandmother knew that and the more mature you become, the more you realise: damn, it really is like that. When Rolex presented the GMT-Master II as a yellow gold and bicolour version on a Jubilé bracelet last year, I immediately felt something like my own personal Werthers Echte moment. Only not with gold-wrapped caramel sweets, but with the watches I knew from my childhood. And so I still remember, as if it were yesterday, the picture of TV legend Horst Tappert smiling at me from the cover of a TV magazine with a gold GMT on a Jubilee bracelet.

How deep is deep?

When I started wearing watches at a young age, everything was quite simple for me. If the words “Water Resistant” were written on the back cover, you had to be careful. On the other hand, if it said “30M”, everything was fine. Off to the beach with it and have fun. I wore those watches in the sea for years without a care in the world - for swimming, showering and bathing anyway.
