The Iconic Submariner

November 8th, 2008

The Submariner watch by Rolex is an icon for its style and design as well as it’s popularity. It is a combination of elegance and excellent workmanship that has made it the standard bearer for all mechanical watches. This watch is in a class of its own. It is recognized all round the world. It first shot into fame through the James bond movies. Now this watch is known the world over as a status symbol, and an icon of wealth and power. rolex

The Rolex Submariner needs to be applauded for its first class workmanship; it is made of either stainless steel or gold. The stainless steel is corrosion resistant and Rolex has its own foundry so the can improve the quality of the gold. The watch has the trip lock system which which make the watch more secure. The Submariner is waterproof to a depth f 100 meters making it the first choice of many professional divers. 

Another part of the Rolex Submariner watch is the rotatable bezel. It helps divers accurately measure their time underwater. The Rotatable bezel is a feature that makes the Submariner first class on land, sea and underwater.

Another key feature is the trip lock winding crown, it has drawn inspiration from the submarine hatch and it possesses three layers so that no water can seep into the watch.

Rolex Submariner is totally a superior watch and to a pressure of 500 bars it is waterproof, setting a standard of its own. The casing in which this technically superior watch is placed is a wonder to admire; it is made of gold, platinum or high quality stainless steel. One oyster case undergoes more than 150 steps of manufacturing to get that sheen and that quality. A Rolex invention is the perpetual rotor which is the worlds’ first self winding mechanism. It gives you seamless movement, the energy which is generated is accumulated in the mainspring and depending on the model it gives varying hours of operation.
