That's a big chunk of watch !. Not sure why Rolex are making watches with such deep pressure ratings, James Cameron could wear a Casio G shock in his titanium diving sphere, as the inside pressure is stable. Still a very impressive sports watch.
Gotta like that......
He's not wearing it inside, its being taken down outside the diving sphere 😉
IMO, it would look a lot nicer without D E E P S E A C H A L L E N G E - R I N G L O C K S Y S T E M . If you make a watch that survives the bottom of the Marianas Trench, you can write about it in the booklet rather than etch it in to steel. It's not like anyone's going to forget (or overlook the rating on the dial). 🙄
It looks like Rolex decided the DeepSea was not quite deep enough, not quite for James Cameron's dive to the bottom of the Marianas Trench. There's a great video on the making of the DeepSea Challenge here:
