With a brand value of $9.1 billion dollars, Rolex’s dominance in the luxury watch market is irrefutable. The iconic brand further distinguishes themselves through endorsements, partnerships and collaborations. Rolex famously endorses a bevy of sporting events including golf, tennis, racing and yachting.
A Storied Legacy
Rolex’s identity is closely entwined with athletics. Sports models occupy prominent places among Rolex’s most popular watches. In 1926, the beloved watchmaker introduced the first waterproof wristwatch, the Rolex Oyster. Next, Rolex debuted their first divers’ watch, the Submariner, in 1954. Unlike the Oyster, which was confined to the water’s surface, the Submariner could function up to 100 meters below the ocean’s surface.
14 years later, Rolex unveiled the Sea-Dweller. Rolex designed the Sea-Dweller specifically for professional divers. Likewise, the watch’s pressure-resistant case and a helium valve allowed a diver to wear the watch up to 610 meters below the water’s surface. In 1978, further innovations allowed the watch to reach depths of 1,220 meters. Rolex opted to discontinue the watch in 2008. However, in 2014, the Sea-Dweller reemerged with an updated bracelet and a larger dial. In 2017, Rolex premiered another updated version of the watch.
Throughout its history, the Sea-Dweller represented the most water-resistant mechanical watch in production.
