The Newest Rolex Oyster Perpetual Submariner Review

The newest Rolex Oyster Perpetual Submariner watch’s unidirectional-rotating 60-minute graduated bezel is now enhanced with a black insert made of virtually scratchproof, non-fading, corrosion-resistant ceramic that Rolex calls Cerachrom. The graduations are coated in a PVD process with a thin layer of platinum. The hour markers and hands on the sleek, black dial are filled with Rolex’s proprietary Chromalight luminescent material, which emits a blue glow that the company claims lasts twice as long as that of other luminous substances used on watch dials - replica Rolex Oyster Perpetual Submariner.

The classical Oyster case of the new Submariner is 40 mm in diameter and water-resistant to a depth of 300 meters (1,000 feet). The case middle is crafted from a solid block of particularly corrosion-resistant 904L stainless steel, and the fluted caseback is hermetically screwed down with a special tool exclusive to Rolex watchmakers. The winding crown, fitted with Rolex’s patented Triplock system, screws down securely against the case in a manner akin to a submarine’s hatch and is protected by a crown guard. The crystal is made of scratch-resistant synthetic sapphire.

The new Oyster Perpetual Submariner is fitted with a solid-link Oyster bracelet in 904L steel. The bracelet includes a new-generation Oysterlock safety clasp and Glidelock extension system, located beneath the clasp cover, which allows fine adjustments of the bracelet length in 2-mm increments, for a total of approximately 20 mm, without using any tools. This feature allows the watch to be worn over a diving suit up to 3 mm thick, and also provides additional comfort on the wrist.

The high-precision movement inside the highly water-resistant case, automatic Caliber 3130, is a COSC-certified chronometer entirely developed and manufactured by Rolex. The movement’s oscillator has a hairspring made of blue Parachrom, a Rolex-patented alloy that is unaffected by magnetic fields and maintains stability and precision when exposed to temperature variations and shocks.
