Submariner Date “Hulk”

THE REFERENCE AMONG DIVERS WATCHES

The Oyster Perpetual Submariner and Oyster Perpetual Submariner Date, archetypes of the divers watch, epitomize the historic link between Rolex and underwater exploration

Launched in 1953, the Submariner was the first divers wristwatch waterproof to a depth of 100 metres (330 feet). Just a year after its launch, its waterproofness was increased to a depth of 200 metres (660 feet), and it was soon fitted with other technical innovations, such as a luminescent disc on the hour hand to clearly distinguish it from the minute hand, and a crown guard.Since then, the two watches have moved well beyond the marine world. Over time, they have become the watches of choice for a wide range of sports and other activities indeed, true archetypes of the action watch.
The unidirectional rotatable bezel of the Submariner and Submariner Date is equipped with a 60-minute graduated monobloc Cerachrom insert in black, blue or green that allows divers to monitor their time underwater. The Oyster case of the Submariner and Submariner Date, 41 mm in diameter and guaranteed waterproof to a depth of 300 metres (1,000 feet), is a paragon of robustness and reliability. The Submariner is equipped with calibre 3230, while the Submariner Date is fitted with calibre 3235, self-winding mechanical movements entirely developed and manufactured by Rolex.
