For most of its history, Rolex's Submariner maintained more or less the same designs. This was true until 2008, when the first of the 'Ceramic Submariners' were released. The new references did away with the ubiquitous aluminium bezel, instead offering a high-tech ceramic bezel that was much more resistant to scratches.

The case and bracelet were also changed to make them feel much more substantial. While the original Submariners were created with pure practicality in mind, the Ceramic Submariners had an air of luxury appropriate appropriate for the 21st Century.

Rolex's Submariner is to many the definitive wristwatch. From its origins as a diver's companion and James Bond's wristwatch, the Submariner has ingrained itself into popular culture like no watch before or since. Worn and loved by bankers, rappers and watch enthusiasts alike, the Submariner possibly the most culturally significant piece of horology ever.

This doesn't mean it's all talk and no action though - the Submariner is iconic for a reason. Its water resistant Oyster case, highly legible Mercedes hands and timing bezel may have originated as practical functions, but they've come together to create a beautifully proportioned watch that appeals as much to the designer's eye as it does to the procurement officer's spec sheet.

ROLEX

Known by many simply as "the Crown", Rolex has certainly done much to deserve its reputation. From its founding just over a century ago by a German immigrant in the UK, Rolex has grown to become an international behemoth, recognisable (and indeed visible) across the globe.

Few other watchmakers can boast the same combination of consistency, quality and desirability as Rolex. Everything from the build quality of the cases and bracelets to the chronometer-rated movements are designed to ensure that even the most discerning of owners are satisfied.
