Rolex pays tribute to director James Cameron’s solo dive into the Mariana Trench with a special edition of its Deepsea watch featuring a new “D‑Blue” dial. The Rolex Deepsea D‑Blue is waterproof to an extreme depth of 3,900 metres (12,800 feet), subjecting the watch to pressures equivalent to roughly three tonnes. Its 44 mm Oyster case, reinforced with the patented Ringlock System, was designed to provide maximum resistance.
Featuring a unique gradient “D‑Blue” dial that fades from blue to black, the timepiece is fitted with a 904L stainless steel Oyster bracelet with flat three‑piece solid links, an Oysterlock safety clasp, and the patented Glidelock and Fliplock diving extension systems.
Inside the Deepsea D‑Blue is the COSC‑certified manufacture Calibre 3135.
No word on price, but my best guess is that it will retail for about $13,000.
