The Rolex Sea Dweller DEEPSEA (ref 116660) was released at BaselWorld in 2008, as the most water resistant mechanical watch in serial production. As overwhelming proof, Rolex tested it’s new DEEPSEA’s water resistance to a depth of 4,845 meters using calculating equipment by Comex (although the official depth rating is 3,900 meters).

Accompanied by it’s uniquely utilitarian Glidelock Clasp, the DSSD is a wet diver’s dream.
