Tough, durable and accurate, new Oyster Perpetual Submariner watches meet highest demands of professional divers. As the extra quality, these timepieces possess attractive, modern elegant look that makes them suitable for almost every occasion, both private and professional.

Back in 1953, Rolex started producing the innovative line of “tool watches”, specially designed to fulfill different kind of professional needs. Presented as the first wristwatch to be water-proof up to 100 meters (300 feet), the Submariner was and steel is, the true representative of the highest quality of brand’s products (along with the Explorer, the GMT Master, the Cosmograph Daytona…).

Today, the Rolex Oyster Perpetual Submariner for men has superb resistance to water-pressure up to 300 meters (1000 feet). This wouldn’t be possible without the standard durability of the Oyster case and some special features that come exclusively with the Rolex dive watch.

One of them is the Triplock winding crown, with ten different parts that are made of the most durable materials. This unique crown is highly protected, being screwed down onto the case. Superb functionality is provided by the unidirectional rotatable bezel, which offers precise information about diving time. The accuracy of these crucial indications is ensured by the unidirectional rotating system, while the luminescent capsule ensures perfect readability, even in most extreme situations.

Newest Oyter Perpetual Submariners come with special Cerachrom bezels, covered with the extremely tough ceramic core, which possesses amazing resistance to corrosion and scratches. These bezels are blue, black or green, with numerals and graduations in platinum or yellow gold.

The masculine size of the case (40 mm in diameter), slightly bigger than we used to with Rolex Oysters, gives bold and aggressive look, while the sporty and elegant bracelet with the Glidelock claps, makes the watch very comfortable and provides divers to extend the length of the bracelet up to 20 mm.

The Rolex Submariner timepiece is powered by the in-house Caliber 3135 self-winding movement. This COSC-certified chronometer incorporates anti-magnetic and shock-resistant Parachrom hairspring and beats at frequency of 28,000 oscillations per hour, with autonomy 50 hours, when it is not worn.

Steel and Gold

The newest line of the Rolex Oyster Perpetual Submariner men’s watches has several variations, based on different materials. Models 116610LN and 116610LV are crafted in hard steel and come in black and blue respectively. The color of the bezel matches the dial color. These divers’ tools are available for around $5,500.

Finally, Submariners which are completely made in yellow or white gold (models 116618LN and 116619LB) are available for a price from 23,000 to 25,000 dollars.

  1. Pablo Gray November 18, 2011

    This Rolex is not like the usual Rolex watches. Its character is more sporty than elegant. Although this watch can be used in some special occasions. It is very nice and I’m thrilled with its design.

  2. Rafael Huber November 18, 2011

    This is very good and nice watch, but the price is abnormal. $23000 for a watch!
    No doubt that there are people who will buy this watch for that price, but I’m not one of them.

  3. Adam Rich November 18, 2011

    Yes, Rafael, the price is high, but this is Rolex. They have tradition, quality and reliability.
    Rolex watches are not for everyone. Only people with style and larger budgets can wear them.

  4. Brandon Lane January 31, 2012

    This Rolex model has a sportier look than its predecessors. I like the model with green dial and bezel. It looks very comfortable and fun. The blue one is good, too.

  5. Ralph Snyder January 31, 2012

    There is no doubt that Rolex is one of the best brands for watches. I was pleasantly surprised by the novelty of 300 meters water resistance. Now this watch is ideal for diving. Maybe the slogan of this watch could be ˝Dive with style˝.

  6. Craig Ellis January 31, 2012

    I agree with you, Ralph, except in one part- Rolex isn`t one of the best, Rolex is the best brand!
    Have you ever seen a better watch, with more luxury and style, a watch which has pure gold in its bracelet or case?
    I don`t think so! Rolex is a synonym for a good watch

  7. Steven Cooper May 16, 2012

    This is definitely the most relaxing watch from all Rolex watches on this site. Personally, I like the model with green dial and bezel (116610LV). The only problem with this watch is its price. It`s too high for my budget, and probably for the budgets of many people, but if you want a quality watch with a lot of sophisticated things, you must set aside a big amount of money.

  8. Larry Smooth May 16, 2012

    You are absolutely right, Steven. This is truly the most relaxing watch from Rolex. All their watches are usually made for some elegant events and special occasions, but this one is made for everyday wearing.

  9. Philip Howard May 16, 2012

    Rolex mechanism is one of the best in the world of watches. That’s why they are one of the best and the most famous brands in the world. This is a splendid example of a great watch.

  10. Corey Bates June 27, 2012

    I thought that when you buy Rolex watches, you pay only the name, but it isn’t true. This exclusive brand is known for high quality of every part. The designers and engineers from Rolex take care of every detail.
    I am extremely fascinated with a yellow gold watch – 116528.
    Rolex is the most exclusive brand. I became a member of high society and the brand has a big role in my life.
    I have one question for you. I need friends to help me understand which speed Tachymeter scale measures.

  11. Everett Mason June 27, 2012

    Rolex is my great love. I think that there is no man in this world for whom the name of the brand is not important. Rolex is a representative of my personality to any event or conference.
    I am simply a big lover of style and luxury.

  12. Eliot Paz July 26, 2012

    Hi Corey. Tachymeter is a common chronograph feature, most often engraved on a bezel, which measures speed according to a predefined distance. Speed can be read in units per hour on the tachometer scale.

  13. gina lee October 28, 2012

    Every man should own one.

  14. Gene April 18, 2013

    If anyone is still reading this the price listed was either wrong or prices have soared. Just picked up the LV, listed at $9050 plus tax, LN was $8550. The blue one is steel with white gold and listed around $32K. I wish I knew this back then, would have bought a few.
