Rolex Oyster Perpetual Deep Sea

Often the setting of myths and legends, the oceans have sparked imagination since the beginning of time. They kindle in man an irrepressible desire for adventure, challenge and ever greater achievement, a drive throughout the ages to seek new heights and explore the deep.

The new Oyster Perpetual DEEPSEA is a product of man's inherent desire to push the boundaries of his dreams and his potential.

Waterproof to an extreme depth of 3,900 metres (12,800 feet), this new-generation diver's watch confirms the supremacy of Rolex in the mastery of waterproofness and demonstrates an ever-present pursuit of excellence.

Entirely developed and manufactured by Rolex, the DEEPSEA is a totally new watch that benefits from important technical innovations. It is equipped with a RINGLOCK SYSTEM, a new case architecture patented by Rolex, which allows the watch to resist the colossal pressure exerted by water at great depths. It is the first watch to feature a bracelet with a double extension system making it easily adaptable for greater comfort in wear over a diving suit.

The DEEPSEA responds to the most exacting demands of professional divers in terms of robustness, precision and reliability.

With its intrinsic capabilities, the DEEPSEA takes a rightful place in the prestigious Oyster family. It illustrates the pioneering spirit that led Rolex to develop, as early as the 1950s, divers' watches like the Submariner and the Sea-Dweller. Its name pays tribute to the Deep Sea Special, the experimental prototype that in 1960 plunged to a depth of 10,916 metres in the Mariana Trench.
