The Submariner, launched in 1953, was the first diving watch to be water-resistant to 100 meters, and the Submariner Date, launched in 1969, had a date function in addition to the time. The water resistance of both watches was later increased to 300 meters. Thanks to their renowned robustness, they have transcended the ocean’s depths and become the watch of choice for all kinds of sports and other activities.
As an underwater survival tool, the design of the Submariner was entirely determined by the practical needs of divers. The watch has evolved technologically and has been given features that improve its overall functionality. 
With a 41 mm Oyster case, a unique dial with large luminous hour markers and hands, a unidirectional rotating bezel and an Oyster strap, the Submariner and Submariner Date are among the most recognizable watches ever made. In terms of strong visual recognition, the Cerachrom graduated bezel insert made of high-tech ceramic is the key to its functionality. Its 60-minute scale allows divers to accurately monitor dive time.
The Oyster case of the Submariner and Submariner Date guarantees water resistance to a depth of 300 meters. The Triplock winding crown, fitted with a triple water-resistance system, screws tightly onto the case to provide even greater water resistance.
The Submariner and Submariner Date are equipped with the calibers 3230 and 3235, respectively, self-winding mechanical movements entirely developed and manufactured by replica Rolex. Their construction, manufacturing and innovative features give them a unique level of precision and reliability. The power reserve of both movements is extended to approximately 70 hours.
The Submariner is specially designed for underwater exploration and diving. When it first emerged from the Rolex workshops, the watch immediately found favor with many deep-sea professionals who were asked to put it to the test. One of these pioneers was Dimitri Rybikov, a French engineer and underwater photographer.
In his 1953 report, Rebikoff wrote that it had performed very well in the tests.” We were able to confirm that the replica watch was not only completely satisfactory under extremely difficult diving conditions but was particularly lethal for the materials used, and it has proven to be an indispensable accessory in all dives with independent equipment.”
