seal Triplock winding crown , making it capable of with standing dept hs of

up to 300 metres (1,000 feet). The 40 mm Submariner is presented here in

1953

the first submariner

Launched in 1953, the Submariner was the

rst watch guaranteed waterproof to a depth

of 100 metres (330 feet). Today’s Submariner

can withstand the pressure at a depth of 300metres (1,000 feet) and is designed to resist

extreme conditions.

underwater worlds

Since time immemorial, mankind has been

spellbound by the sea and the mystery of

its uncharted depths. The deep remained

beyond reach until the irrepressible desire

for exploration, coupled with boundless

human ingenuity, gave rise to the technology

that would enable men to catch a glimpse of

the underwater world.

a perfect partner on land or in the sea

We invented the Submariner to work perfectly 660 feet under the sea.

It seems to work pretty well at any level.

the spirit of the submariner




an obsession with perfection



the rolex

glidelock clasp

The Submariner Date is no stranger to

comfort. Fitted on the new generations of

the Submariner Date, the Rolex Glidelock

clasp enables divers to adjust the length

of the bracelet to t over a suit 3 mm thick.

In increments of 2 mm, it offers a total

extension of up to approximately 20 mm.And no tools are required.

the triplock winding crown

To protect the movement from water and dust, Rolex

invented the Oyster case in 1926. And then, in 1953 created

and patented the Twinlock winding crown to ensure further

protection for professional divers. Rolex increased guarantee

of waterproofness for the diving watches by introducing the

Triplock winding crown in 1970. The Triplock consists of 10

different elements crafted from the most reliable materials.Once assembled, it screws down onto the Oyster case as

tightly and securely as a submarine hatch.

the oyster case

Very few people in the world are allowed

inside a Rolex Oyster. Only authorised Rolex

retailers have the necessary know-how, skills

and equipment to gain access. Hermeticallysealed to the case with a massive torque of

ve Newton metres, the back of any Oyster,

as this caseback demonstrates, creates an

environment that protects the movement

from shocks, pressure, dust, water and any

other intrusive element.





unidirectional

rotatable bezel

The Submariner’s rotatable bezel is a key functionality of the

watch. The graduations provide the diver with an accurate

indication of diving time. For safety reasons, it rotates only

counterclockwise, so there is no chance of overestimating

dive time or the amount of breathing mix remaining in the

tanks. The luminescent capsule ensures legibility, no matter

how light-deprived the environment.

the ceramic bezel

A bezel with a blue, black or green Cerachrom

insert graces the Submariner-Date’s 40

mm case. Fashioned from extremely hard

ceramic material, the Rolex Cerachrom insert

has excellent corrosion-resistant properties.

Its colour remains unaffected by ultraviolet

rays, and it is virtually scratchproof. The

numerals and graduations are in yellow gold

or platinum.
