About This Watch

Pre-owned. Comes with complete boxes, manual, red tag, RSC service card & dated paper in pouch+orig. purchase invoice.

This is one you shouldn't miss as it has all the bells and whistles and watch received a full service from RSC (Rolex service center), Singapore in 2020 so the movement is well lubricated and seals freshened. The watch is of course polished but remains in high integrity with a tight, like-new bracelet but the polished areas show some light surface handling marks that can be easily buffed away but we retained the watch as it is for your inspection and decision to keep it as it is or to polish.

This is the 1st Gen Rolex Deep Sea, D-Blue dial which is a special professional diver's watch launched to commemorate James Cameron’s historic solo dive using the Deep Sea Challenger Submarine. The usual black dial is now a two-tone brilliant blue to a bottomless black which celebrates one man’s journey to the deepest place on earth. A new world record of 35,787 feet or 10,908m was achieved by reaching the bottom of the Mariana Trench on March 26, 2012 and Rolex was there. Please click here to learn more about the conquest.

Purchased new from an AD in Switzerland with accompanying invoice. This is a full sized 44mm model which is rated to a depth of 12800ft or 3900m.

The latest model is Ref.136660.
