The Rolex Submariner has been a part of the Rolex catalog for well over 60 years. As expected, the famed dive watch has undergone plenty of design and mechanical enhancements over the past six decades, including the all-important timing bezel. Read on to discover all the different types of bezels of the Rolex Submariner.When Rolex debuted the Submariner in 1953, the stainless steel dive watch included a rotating bezel marked to 60 minutes to allow divers to track immersion times. The steel bezel turned both ways for simple timing adjusting, the edge of the bezel was knurled for easy gripping underwater, and the insert was fashioned from black aluminum.The printed 60-minute scale on the earlier versions included markings for every 5 minutes, alternating between batons and numerals. By the late 1950s, Rolex started to include hash marks for the first 15 minutes on the bezel followed by 5-minute markings.Around 1969, Rolex introduced the first yellow gold Submariner, the Submariner Date ref. 1680/8. Accordingly, the knurled rotating bezel was fashioned from 18k yellow gold. What’s more, the Rolex Submariner ref. 1680/8 now offered the choice of either a black or blue aluminum bezel insert and matching dial.
For a number of years, modern consumer trends have been favoring larger watches. As a result of this, Rolex’s 34mm references have become somewhat forgotten in all the excitement and shuffle that surrounds their larger, sport/professional watchlines. However, recently it seems that smaller-sized watches are starting to make a comeback, and Rolex’s once-overlooked, 34mm watches now represent some of the best values for the money among all Rolex timepieces, both vintage and contemporary.When it comes to Rolex sports watches, the Submariner and Explorer II are amongst the most beloved. And despite the fact that they are both tough, purpose-built timepieces, they’re just about as different as it gets in nearly all respects.But if you’re not very familiar with either watch, comparing these two industry titans can seem daunting. So here, I’m breaking down everything you need to know – and compare – about the Rolex Submariner and the Rolex Explorer II.True sports watches, both the Submariner and Explorer II were built by Rolex with specific jobs in mind – and the hint lies in their names. Unsurprisingly, the Submariner is a divers watch, built to time out scuba dives and withstand the unrelenting pressure of 300-meter (1,000 foot) depths. In fact, this watch has been one of the world’s top diving watches since it was first released back in 1953.The Explorer II, on the other hand, was originally introduced in 1971 for speleologists who work in deep underground caverns. But like the original Rolex Explorer – the watch that provided its foundation – the Explorer II appeals to adventurers and explorers of all kinds, especially since its popular 40th anniversary remodel.
The movement is a clone IWC 52850. Look at the auto rotor, it is in golden and the prince is standing on his planet, and the planet will rotate as long as you shake your hand. The movement is decorated beautifully, base movement plate has polished Geneve Stripes. Each plate is cut well and molded carefully by watch master, so they could maintain the stability and accuracy of the movement. By the way, the replica IWC Le Petit Prince is fitted with a brown leather strap.IWC Pilot always attracts me by their military watch outlook. And among all Pilots watches, Mark series is the most popular. On our market, there are two main factories that are replicating IWC Mark watches, they are MK and V6. Maybe you have bought good quality ones from other small factories, but I have to say they are not in top quality, the best Mark series replicas must come from MK and V6. Actually one friend of mine introduced the Mark XVI replica made by MK factory before on his website at Susanwatches.ru. And now the watch has become a best seller once being introduced on his site. Besides Mark XVI, there are other models that are also perfectly cloned, including Mark XVIII and XVII. Today, I went to our watch market again, and found a new art work on the storefront of MK factory, it is IWC Mark XI, firstly I was attracted by its green nylon band. I love watches with nylon strap. When I checked it carefully, I found its dial design is distinctive, Mark XI has an unique dial that is different from other Mark models. And the green nylon band and unique dial design make Mark XI so special among those watches in MK factory store. So I borrowed this replica watch from the factory and took some photos to share with you guys.
The Rolex Two-Tone Submariner 16613 is available on a flat-link Oyster bracelet with hollow 18 karat yellow gold center links and an Oysterlock clasp. Like other Submariner watches, the clasp on the ref. 16613 features a wetsuit extension system that allows the length of the bracelet to be adjusted on the fly to fit comfortably over wetsuits.Depending on the year of production, Submariner 16613 bracelets can be found with slight differences between their clasps, end-links, and wetsuit extension systems. Earlier examples will have hollow end-links, all-steel clasps, and stamped wetsuit extensions, while later-era 16613 Submariner bracelets will have solid end-links, a link-style extension system, and a clasp featuring a 18k yellow gold strip through the center.The ref. 16613 is the result of Rolex’s tireless quest for perfection. Its long production run has spawned several variations, making it a fun watch to “hunt” for on the pre-owned Rolex market. It’s also a popular choice for its stunning two-tone steel and gold finish, and it is an excellent option for anyone who seeks a gold Rolex sports watch without the hefty price tag that accompanies an all-gold watch.
I like this type of YachtMaster Rolex, its ocean blue color attracts me. There was one YachtMaster II replica in full stainless steel published several years ago, it was highly welcomed and has driven a crazy sale record, now still a lot of people are pursuing the white steel YachtMaster II. About this two tone model, although not my favorite, it is still a great replica watch.Rolex YachtMaster II 116681 Blue There are blue, rose gold, red, white and black colors gathered on this watch. Bezel tooth, case buttons and middle links of bracelet are all plated with rose gold. Blue bezel insert is ceramic made with golden engraving. On white dial, the blue small second hand is running on subdial at 6, this subdial is in rose gold color with black markers. Square hour markers have golden frame with white luminescence filled inside. Hour markers, hour and minute hands will emit strong blue light in dark place. The big triangle hand on the centre is for countdown function, but on this replica, this feature is false, that means this triangle red hand is not working. That’s reasonable, because this replica is only equipped with a Shanghai 7750 chronograph movement.Rolex YachtMaster II 116681 Buttons Specification of Rolex YachtMaster II 116681: Movement: Shanghai 7750 Chronograph, 28800VPH Case: 44mm*14mm, 18K Two Tone Plated on 316L Steel, Blue Ceramic Bezel Crystal: Sapphire Dial: White Band: Two Tone. 18K Rose Gold Plated. New Rolesor Deployant Clasp Water Resistant: 50m Replica Rolex Daytona Two Tone Watch – The Luxury Classic in Sports Rolex Daytona Two Tone Watch Replica J12 Rolex Daytona In my opinion, among all Swiss watches, Daytona is considered to be the only luxury sports watch made with precious metals.
