Rolex watches have been known for their quality and their Rolex dive watch are no different. Their first entry watch for diving was the Rolex Submariner which was introduced at the Basel Watch Fair in 1954 which was the same time the self-contained underwater breathing apparatus (scuba tank) what we today know as scuba diving.
By the year 1961 Rolex had two versions of the Submariner, one water resistant to 200 meters/660 feet, the other, less expensive version, to 100 meters/330 feet. It was the choice of watch for the character of 007 in the first ten James Bond films, causing the "Rolex Oyster Perpetual" to achieve an iconic status with everyone.
