The Pioneering Achievement of RLX Titanium
The Deepsea Challenge marks a historic milestone as the first Rolex to be manufactured entirely from RLX titanium. This material choice makes the watch surprisingly light and comfortable on the wrist despite its robust dimensions – approximately 30% lighter than the experimental steel prototype. The intensive satin finish lends the model a technical and matte aesthetic that visually distinguishes itself clearly from traditionally polished watches.
Engineering Excellence for the Deep: 11,000 Metres
Designed to withstand the extreme pressure of the deep sea, this model is water-resistant to an incredible depth of 11,000 metres. The heart of this resilience is the patented Ringlock System, which utilises a nitrogen-alloyed steel ring to absorb the pressure on the 9.5 mm thick sapphire crystal. Additionally, the helium escape valve ensures that excess gas can safely escape during the decompression phase without damaging the case.
Commanding Presence and Calibre 3230
With a diameter of 50 mm, this is the largest commercial watch in Rolex's history, ensuring maximum legibility through the long-lasting blue glow of the Chromalight display. This giant is powered by the in-house Calibre 3230 movement, equipped with the Chronergy escapement and the blue Parachrom hairspring, to deliver outstanding precision and a power reserve of approximately 70 hours.
