RolexDeepsea

Rolex’s most hardcore dive instrument, the Deepsea Sea-Dweller, was first introduced in 2008 and showcased the brand’s technical achievements. More than tripling the depth capabilities of the regular Sea-Dweller, its water resistance is rated to 12,800 feet / 3,900 metres. This results from several engineering achievements, including a 5mm thick sapphire crystal, a helium escape valve, and a Ringlock system.

The Deepsea’s dimensions are substantial at 44mm, giving a strong presence on the wrist. Despite the size, Rolex has fitted the watch with a titanium caseback to reduce weight and enhance comfort. The three-link Oyster bracelet features a dive extension and Glidelock system, which offers 15mm of tool-free adjustment. Inside the case beats the reliable and long-running calibre 3135, which has a 48-hour power reserve and COSC certification.

This example from 2011 is presented in excellent condition with some light signs of wear visible on the case, bracelet, and clasp. Also included in the sale are the box, guarantee, booklet, swing tags, and bezel protector.

All watches offered for sale are searched and cleared against The Watch Register database and a certificate is available to the winning bidder upon request.
