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.
Case is 42mm in diameter, made of 316L stainless steel and has a fine brushing. Bezel and lugs are well connected, whole case profile is 1:1 replicate from original.Arc-shaped sapphire crystal has ar coating, the sapphire has passed hardness test by special instrument, and it is highly scratch resistant. Under sapphire crystal, it is black dial that has several layers to give wearer a great three-dimensional visual effect. The replica has white, black and blue options on dial. Rome hour markers are made of 18K platinum, each is well built. Date is shown through the small window at 6.Bracelet is in high quality, I do not know what type of bracelet it is, but indeed attracts my eyes, I think it looks more beautiful than Rolex Oyster bracelet. Buckle is deployant and has the same construction as genuine.If you are looking for a replica Omega that looks perfect from inner to outside, this is the one. You will never regret, and the watch will match any type of dresses especially good for meeting in business occasions.
Other Submariners do not have engravings on case back. From the case back, you can see the pins that connect the case and bracelet, they are crafted to be better so that could firmly connect case head, every piece of the bracelet link is made of solid 316L stainless steel, holding the replica is like wearing a genuine Rolex.In a word, the replica inherits all advantages of Noob 116610 LN Submariner but has its own unique features.This is another great vintage project in the replica watch market, which comes with a replica Rolex Submariner. The replica is manufactured by the same factory as Daytona 6214. I have introduced several pieces of replica watches including Panerai and Rolex in my blog, many of them attracted a lot of readers here and they asked me the price, I have to tell them these vintage watches are all sold at reasonable prices. Ref. 5510 should have be the oldest Submariner model Rolex made, it already had the features of modern Rolex Submariner like Mercedes-Benz hands and rotating bezel, however Submariner 5510 also has the iconic features of its own. Here I will introduce the replica to let you know more about those vintage Rolex watches made in old times.The most outstanding place that also makes the watch full of vintage style lies in its dial, which is black. The hour markers of 3-6-9 and bar-shaped also make it different from other Submariner watches. These hour markers are all applied with yellowish luminescence, so are the hands. The dial printings are also in yellow color except the words “200m = 660ft”. Next to the hour markers, there is a circle of minutes scales in track style, which is also different from modern Submariner watch. We actually call such dial “Explorer Style”. The bezel insert is black and features white printings, there is a pearl at 12 o’clock in red triangle background.
This replica watch has elegant temperament and simple appearance as a whole. It still with the classic dial style of IWC, which may have ultra big diameter, yes, it has 44.5mm. Its case was made of solid stainless steel 316. There are steel rail-mounded minute scales on the black dial. The hour hand was steel leaf hand which was the representative of elegance. The slender hands help us to read time clearly. What’s more, it has set a seconds sub-dial at 6:00 position. The transparent sapphire crystal was so clear and can be wear resistant. Correspondingly, the case back also used this crystal. This considerate design gave us a precious opportunity to observe the operation of movement clearly. This replica matched with a black leather strap, even its stitch was also black. Along with the black dial which has steel hands inside. I think it can highlight your shrewd and capable temperament obviously when you wearing this wrist watch. The thickness of case only has 11.5mm, really thin in shape, which may be more fit for wrist with comfortable wearing experiment.
In July, one of my clients sent one watch back to Noob for repairing, he waited almost one and half month for the factory to fix it, I must say that the repairing of Noob is too slow.Both factories have their own advantages, but for beginners, I recommend ARF 116610LV more, because the first feeling it gives to you is more real, the quality and texture of the watch is super. I did not say bad things about Noob, they are a big factory, I have to admit, but if they can not do a better customers service and quality check, I think they will be very difficult to keep the pace with AR factory.AR Submariner 116610LV photos below:This watch is the V2 version of two tone Submariner 116613LN replica from AR factory, it is also the best version currently. Some people will ask, what about if being compared with the one from Noob? Actually I do not know, I have not held two watches in hand and compared them. Maybe in subtle details, Noob makes better, but the replica from AR factory also has their advantages. For example, it is the factory that used 904L stainless steel material on their replica Rolex watches, second, the finish on case and bracelet is much better. Third, AR factory installed an Asia ETA 2824 movement in this replica, compared with the Asia 3135 movement in Noob version, Asia 2824 is more stable and reliable. Fourth, the price is cheaper.
The replica Rolex Explorer II features a white dial, there is also a black dial version. White and black match really well, like this 216570 replica, on white dial, the hour markers and hands all have black edge, which has a high contrast with the white dial background. The orange GMT hand echoes with the orange printing “EXPLORER II”, looks very obvious and eye-catching. Hour markers and hands are applied super lume material, so the dial will have a strong lume effect in the dark, which is very convenient for you to read the time.For me, who pursue perfection, I focus its texture such as weight more than the details. When I first hold the replica on hand, I feel a little heavy, it gives me a big surprise because a lot of replica watches have a very light weight, but this one is heavy, this absolutely makes me believe that the replica is made of high-level solid steel material, actually it is, the 316L stainless steel is currently the best watch material. With screw-down crown and case back is perfectly sealed, the replica watch is tested to be 50m waterproof by Noob factory workers.Replica Rolex 36mm Datejust 116233 Champagne Gold Watch ReviewI did not give too many reviews on ladies watches, all replicas reviewed here are for men, they look strong and most of them are particularly made for special purpose. Some readers here asked me whether there is good quality replica watches for ladies, maybe they want to buy one for their girlfriend or wife. Actually there are a lot of good ladies watches in our market, such as Cartier, Chopard, etc., Rolex also has their ladies collection, the 36mm and 28mm Datejust or Day Date are all made for ladies. Here I am going to introduce one replica watch, it is a champagne gold Datejust, in 36mm, which is a medium size and will fit the wrist of most women. The two tone is a very popular style, and the diamonds on dial add more luxury feeling to this gold replica.The watch has a steel and champagne gold color, fluted bezel is champagne gold plated, like the three middle links of the bracelet. The dial is the place that perfectly shows the feminity of the Datejust watch, besides its champagne gold color, the diamond hour markers are also the most common decoration which you could find on a lot of ladies watches. The bracelet contains five sections of links, the middle three links are golden, which are in line with the gold tone of bezel and dial. There are two golden versions for this replica, one is gold-plated, the other is 18k wrapped gold version, absolutely the latter is the best, but its price is also very high.Crystal is sapphire, which is highly resistant, the magnifier on the crystal is anti-reflective, through the magnifier, the date is clearly readable – black date font on a white background. The replica is made by BP factory, the 2824 movement inside is an Asian clone one, not genuine, we also call it Sea-Gull 2824, because it is modified from a Sea-Gull automatic movement. Look at the golden crown buckle, it fastens the clasp tightly. Clasp engravings are all correct, they are completed by laser.
Talking about watches and inspiration can spawn some pretty interesting debates, and for good reason – especially in the dive watch category. Of course, early dive watches weren’t “inspired by” anything; dive watches were tools created with a very distinct purpose. That said, as the years went on and the dive watch category moved away from practical utility towards desirable daily-wearers, design inspiration soon came into play. Today we’re looking at luxury watches inspired by the ocean, and digging into the stories behind the creation of each piece and how they relate to the big blue beyond.As mentioned above, there is no reason to go into a Rolex Submariner history lesson here; however, the Rolex Sea-Dweller Deepsea with D-Blue dial (a variant of the original Deepsea that was first unveiled in 2008) has a very distinct connection to our world’s deepest waters.The origins of this piece come from Rolex’s involvement in (read: sponsorship of) James Cameron’s deep dive into the Mariana Trench. Though not limited in production, the piece is commemorative of the 2012 dive, and features a gradient blue to black dial that mimics the loss of light as one descends into the ocean’s depths. Additionally, the green chosen for the DEEPSEA text on its dial is matched to the color of Cameron’s Deepsea Challenger Submarine that took a prototype Rolex watch all the way down into the trench affixed to one of its robotic arms.The legacy of Jacques-Yves Cousteau is unparalleled in the world of underwater exploration, and many years ago (back in 2004 to be precise), IWC decided to become a partner of the Cousteau Society – a non-profit organization looking to continue the initiatives set out by Jacques-Yves several decades prior. From the onset of the partnership, IWC has included special limited-edition Aquatimer models in their collections, with a portion of the proceeds of each watch headed towards the organization.Of their bigger undertakings, Cousteau’s famed research vessel (named ‘Calypso’) was raised from the sea floor after sinking on account of an incident in Singapore in 1996. Progress on Calypso has been slow-going, and a fire on the ship while docked in Turkey two years ago has slowed things further. Naturally, there are rumors swirling that a redesign of the IWC Aquatimer line across the board will appear in conjunction with the vessel’s unveiling.
Looks-wise, the watch that comes the closest to an all-steel model is now the ref. 116509, which is cast in solid 18k white gold and has the price tag to prove it.That means a delve into the archives is the only avenue still open should you want one, and it is the previous generation that is proving the most affordable. The ‘Zenith’ Daytona ref. 16520, powered by the fabled El Primero, is still the gateway into steel Cosmograph Daytona ownership.Of course, the word ‘affordable’ is all relative. Prices start at around the $20,000 mark, which is a hefty slice of anyone’s money. Yet beyond being one of the most handsome and capable models ever made, any Rolex Daytona represents perhaps the surest investments watch collecting has to offer.It’s a tough call, but the starkly austere Explorer might well be the watch that has changed the least (visually) over its 70-year run. That is even for a manufacture that updates aesthetics at the glacial pace that Rolex does. Every reference, from the prototype Pre-Explorer ref. 6150 from 1952 up to the last of the ref. 114270s in 2010, have been simple three handers, with the beautifully legible white on black 3/6/9 dials, housed in a 36mm case.Then along came the ref. 214270, identical in the detailing but the first example to grow beyond the dimensions in 58-years, measuring 39mm. It increased in size for the same reason as the Datejust – fashions demanded it – but unlike that watch, it became the only option available.That is no bad thing. The Explorer is perhaps the last of the true tool watches in the Rolex catalog. There is nothing about any iteration of the watch that is designed to look flashy or draw attention to itself, and a few extra millimeters doesn’t change that. The new Explorer is basically the old Explorer, and whichever you choose will come down to whether your wrist size suits one or the other.Its strength has always been in its simplicity, and it remains one of the best value for money prospects on the pre-owned Rolex market. $5,000-$6,000 is the buy-in point for a well set up example of the ref. 114270 or, if you fancy going the real vintage route, the celebrated ref. 1016 (personal timepiece of James Bond author Ian Fleming) starts at a little over twice that. Tough, elegant and perfectly built, the Explorer has always stayed true to Rolex’s roots.
