In the vast world of watchmaking, some pieces have become icons of the industry, and there is no doubt that Rolex is an important part of that, with its replica Rolex Submariner model being one of the most iconic models in watchmaking.
The beauty of luxury watches is that they can be passed down from generation to generation, telling us stories of achievement, family, and personalities that are often just as important as mastering the technology required to create them.
The Submariner is probably the most popular luxury watch to date, and since its creation in the 1950s, this Rolex sports watch has been a huge success due to many factors. First, over the past 70 years, it has proven time and time again that it is not a watch but the ultimate quality diving “watch.”
In addition, Rolex’s marketing strategy has been very clever, and its role in many James Bond movies has attracted the attention of many diving enthusiasts. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, because the Submariner can also be used as a formal watch, its design is elegant and timeless.
Like many other classic models in the history of watchmaking, it all began with a practical problem, and the Rolex Submariner began in the early 1950s when amateur diver and copy Rolex director Rene P. Jeanneret challenged the company to develop a diver’s watch that could be worn elegantly at social events and in everyday life as well.
One of the latest versions, the Submariner Date, was born in 2009, and imitation Rolex added a ceramic bezel and a new bracelet, initially applying these changes only to the Rolesor version, reference 116613LB. However, they were later added to the white gold version with a blue dial and bezel.
Over the decades, the Submariner has not presented significant changes. Still, it has changed those necessary to revolutionize the design, subtly retaining the elegance, uniqueness and resistance that characterize it today. If you want to add a Submariner to your collection, you can do so; depending on the model, you can choose an option that can range from 6 thousand to 210 thousand dollars.
