Rolex Sea-Dweller 12,800 ft 3,900 m Price. If you don't want to read you can find the price below. While all Rolex watches are waterproof, people who need or want a basic level of resistance usually go for one of the less depth demanding models, like the Datejust 41, or the GMT-Master II. Both of which have a water resistance depth of a respectable 100 meters.
But if its extreme depths you're after, you need look no further than the Rolex DEEPSEA Sea-Dweller [also known as the Rolex Deepsea 126660]. This super pressurised diving watch is capable of an almost unbelieveable depth of 12,800 feet, or 3,900 meters. I don't know for certain if this model holds the watch submersion depth record, but it much be somewhere in the top 10 for sure
Pictured is the D-Blue model, which displays a nice light blue dial at the top, fading into a dark blue (almost black). Representing the change from shallow (in comparison) to the deepest depths of the sea that divers can reach.
This is a serious watch, and the demand is rather high for this model. Prices do vary greatly depending on where you buy it from. If you can find one for sale, with many dealers you may also be able to haggle a little and get the price down, especially if you are paying the full amount by cash or card. Of course, you can also obtain this watch and pay for it in installments, but I would not recommend that. If you don't have the money, don't buy it.
If you want something much cheaper but still an excellent watch for deep sea diving, the Omega Seamaster Professional Planet Ocean may be a better fit. A beautiful watch with a master chronometer and a water resistance limit of 600 meters (2000 foot).
If you need something a lot cheaper than both of the timepieces talked about here, you could consider the Invicta 8926OB Pro. It's what some people call a poor man's Rolex. However, don't be put of by this label, it's an excellent watch for the price.
