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......

 

you mean as an exercise to see if it will hold up to the pressure ?. judging by thickness of the watch I think the diving sphere will give in before the watch !!.
Love to see a wrist shot if anybody is lucky enough to own one ?.

 

If Rolex wrote a book about this watch they'd charge $800 for it, an extra $150 for the dust cover and $1500 for the hard back !!

Thanks for bringing to our attention this Rolex achievement and with this, it means Rolex is the undisputed master of diver watches, leaving other manufacturers some light years behind.

I am sure Rolex will try to compress this massive case and produce a watch that can be put on one's wrist. With Rolex, anything is possible. Who would at one time believed that a wrist-watch could be 100% waterproof? Rolex did it with amazing results. Little wonder, Rolex is the King of Watches, especially in the world of sports.

Thank-you.

 

Is he using that 'block of a watch' as ballast !.

 

Use it as a shot line.

 

Well he's done it...

Looks like he wore the watch, you can tell by he slightly pumped bicep muscle on his right arm !.

 

There does those complaints about Rolex not making a watch bigger that 42mm...
