The Submariner is one of the most sought after Rolex timepieces and has has extremely popular since the James Bond character Sean Connery started wearing it in the Bond films of the 1960&#8217;s.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rolex has long been known for its waterproof Oyster case, made popular in the 1920&#8217;s and proven waterproof in the Cross English Channel Challenge by English swimmer Mercedes Gleitze. Rolex combined both a patented system for screwed down the bezel, case-back and purchasing the rights to the patent by Paul Perregaux and Georges Peret in 1925 which protected their screw-down crown design.  This combination created the first waterproof and dustproof timepiece and started Rolex down the path of creating exceptional watches that were not only good for swimming, but also for diving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As diving started to become a sport, Rolex took up the challenge.  In 1954 they introduced two Submariner models at the Basel Watch Fair.  The timepiece has undergone countless improvements over the years.  The caliber has gone through multiple changes and two versions of the Submariner emerged &#8211; one with the date window with a cyclops lens and one without the date window.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The early Submariners were all made from steel, but have since been made with multiple metals including yellow gold, rolesor (two-tone with yellow gold and steel) and even white gold.  LeBlanc seems to favor the Oystersteel model with black dial, and black bezel with the date window.  This beautiful timepiece is listed for $9150 on the Rolex site but currently sells for much more than that at retail due to the increased demand for Rolex timepieces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The current <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rolex.com\/watches\/submariner\/m126610ln-0001.html\" class=\"rank-math-link\" rel=\"noopener\">Submariner Date<\/a> comes with a 41mm case, and a new 3235 automatic caliber with new 70 hour power reserve.  The Triplock triple waterproofness system provides water resistance to a depth of 1000 feet.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/rubberb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/submariner-band-.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"680\" src=\"https:\/\/rubberb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/submariner-band--1024x680.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18072\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rubberb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/submariner-band--1024x680.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/rubberb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/submariner-band--300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/rubberb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/submariner-band--768x510.jpg 768w, https:\/\/rubberb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/submariner-band--624x415.jpg 624w, https:\/\/rubberb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/submariner-band--600x399.jpg 600w, https:\/\/rubberb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/submariner-band--64x43.jpg 64w, https:\/\/rubberb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/submariner-band-.jpg 1079w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rubber B has developed 3 different style bands for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rolex.com\/watches\/submariner.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Rolex Submariner<\/a> with 3 different clasps.&nbsp; The first band supports the deployant buckle provided by Rolex.&nbsp; The second band has a tang buckle provided by Rubber B made out of 316L steel.&nbsp; The third band is a unique Velcro\u00ae Alfatex\u00ae closure utilizing a titanium insert for maximum strength and durability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All Rubber B bands are made from all natural vulcanized rubber and are made in Switzerland.
