Rolex is introducing the new generation of its Oyster Perpetual Submariner Date, watch that exemplify the historic links between Rolex and the world of diving. This timepiece now features a redesigned, slightly larger 41 mm case- whose profile is highlighted by the light reflections from the case sides-and is fitted on a remodelled bracelet. It is equipped with movement at the forefront of watchmaking technology- the Submariner Date with calibre 3235, offering both time and date functions, and used in the Submariner range for the first time. A yellow Rolesor version (combining Oystersteel and 18 ct yellow gold) of the Submariner Date presents a royal blue dial with a rotatable bezel and a blue Cerachrom insert.
Like all Rolex watches, the Oyster Perpetual Submariner carries the Superlative Chronometer certification, which ensures excellent performance on the wrist. The Superlative Chronometer status is symbolized by the green seal that comes with every Rolex watch and is coupled with an international five-year guarantee.
