Rolex Deep Sea is an overkill
for any diver. The max depth for scuba diving is 40 meters and any Submariner is good enough for every kind of technical diving. Deep Sea is made for real office divers who do not realise that a depth rating over 300 meters is not needed. I guess that the idea behind Deep Sea is to say "we made it".

Rolex Submariner 116619LB Review
For my 40th birthday -- that is today -- I have been looking for a new daily watch to mark this important anniversary. I have considered several watches from many brands that I have the luck to own: Patek, Lange; JLC and even Panerai or Jaquet Droz. In th...

Happy birthday christianCH!
A beautiful watch even as a diver I'm for diving watches made of the hardest material possible. But for an ageing gentleman this might be the right choice... (lol). Best, Kari
Aah... You are an office diver?
I wear diving watches just for diving. I must be old-fashioned! Best, Kari
Yes office but also shower diver :) or ....
swimming pool diving too For divers the new deep sea is a killer

well I think most of the buyers will be "office divers" BUT...
I think it was a good way for rolex to introduce something new and a special dial. Isn't a bit like annual calendar or even more tourbillon ? not needed but nice to have and shows the technical capabilities of the makers. In the case of a tool watch Rolex...
I agree except
what you said about AC. I find this complication very useful both in my 5960A and 5905P. Probably I am getting old and mixing the dates. Best Kari
Alles Gute zum Geburtstag Christian
To get a fantastic watch for oneself is the best way to celebrate. Best Moritz
did you consider the Daytona in all gold?
I want an all gold "tool" watch and debating between the Daytona and the Submariner. I think the Daytona may be a little more understated, I don't know as of yet. Happy Birthday
I did both in white gold and rose gold...
The rose gold is a bit too feminine I think and the white gold -- depending on the dial -- can be truly gorgeous but I don't think much understated as the daytona is such an iconic piece. Still for me the no date is a bit of a breaking point but I might g...
Happy Birthday Christian and congrats on the most beautiful timepiece you have...
... chosen as a present for this special occassion. Enjoy in good health and thank you so much for sharing this report with us! Cheers! Abel.
A belated Happy Birthday, Chrisitan.
I like to feel the weight of the watch on my wrist and the gold does give it some weight. I recently bought my son the Hulk just because ~ He was totally stoked. The look on his face was priceless. I love it when I hear the satisfaction, passion and love ...
thanks bob ! I also bought the hulk as a gift..
to my brother but this is my first submariner. Amazing watch in all version and I agree with you that the gold one gives a special feeling. I am sure that your son was thrilled because is such an iconic and simply fabulous watch.
Perhaps a sub is next on my list...
but I am not sure. I've got three sons, big guys over six feet. Had a Milgauss ~ wore it for a few years then gave it to my oldest son. Hulk ~ to my second son. He is really into watches so I've given him a few pieces already. He will probably also get th...
