The watch was primarily designed for divers and is known for its ability to resist extreme conditions. The Rolex Submariner has been well tested over the years. The watch has been taken on many sea and land expeditions by explorers where it has successfully performed in extreme cold and repeated underwater use. The Rolex Submariner has been modified and improved upon since its inception in 1954. The latest version of the Submariner features watch hands and markers that are somewhat larger than the previous models. Additionally, the hands and markers are covered with a SuperLuminova coating so that they will glow blue in the dark. The Submariner features a unidirectional bezel that allows an underwater diver to see an accurate indication of diving time. The bezel is made of cerachrome, which is an extremely hard ceramic material. The Submariner bezel is corrosion-resistant, practically scratch proof, and retains its color over time. Since the bezel is so hard, Rolex must carve the numerals and markers on the bezel before it completely hardens. The Submariner bezel has a diameter of 40mm. The Triplock winding crown uses a triple-seal system along with a slightly larger than normal screw down crown to protect the watch movement.The new Rolex Submariner watch models feature a new watch bracelet clasp. The Rolex Glidelock clasp is an improved clasp design that has a solid clasp that can be adjusted by simply sliding the adjustment pin forward or backward. The watch bracelet can be incrementally increased in size up to 21mm in this manner.The Rolex Submariner is an attractive, yet highly functional watch. The watch is designed to handle the wear and tear of someone with an active lifestyle.
