Rolex Deep Sea

 

I am thinking about asking my  AD in Los Angeles to get me a “Deep Sea” Rolex, the one with the blue gradated dial. My thought is that it’s really something of a ridiculous watch, but I think it’s rather fun and really quite beautiful in its own big, thick overbuilt kind of way. My collection is mainly Patek with a couple of vintage Rolex pieces thrown in. The Deep Sea is of course a very modern timepiece. 

I wanted to check with my colleagues here on the Forum. Is this a difficult watch to get at retail? Will it be a tremendous “Ask” of my Rolex Authorized Dealer to get me one? I suspect it has limited appeal because it is really very big and built to serve a specific purpose ( for which I will NEVER use it!) . I just think it’s a a really fun and unusual watch that I would enjoy. Thoughts? Comments?
