Rolex Sea-Dweller in Action
The Sea-Dweller is probably my all-time favorite Rolex. For those of you who doubt that it's still a tool watch better think again. The 'Dweller hasn't forgotten its purpose. *Philip* on the BJSOnline Rolex forum posted photos of his friend's SD hitching a ride on an unmanned remotely operated vehicle (ROV) down to 1,200 meters, which by no coincidence is the maximum depth rating for the watch. The Sea-Dweller survived the journey no worse for wear. That's what it was made for anyway! Makes me want to go strap my Sea-Dweller on and call up the Choir.

The picture above shows the Sea-Dweller at 1,200 meters. The mothership's cameras were focused on the watch during the dive!
