It was at the time and long remained the most extreme, most reliable and most professional of all divers\u2019 watches. It has always distinguished itself by its extreme pressureresistance, which has varied between 600 and 1,220 meters, as well as by the fact of being the only <strong>Rolex<\/strong> with a date display and no Cyclops lens. Another distinctive feature is that several series were produced with the name spelt out in red letters. The Sea-Dweller was made in such small quantities that these models, known as Single Red and Double Red, have become legends. In 2017, <strong>Rolex<\/strong> introduces a new Sea-Dweller, bearing identification number 126600. While logically equipped with the latest-generation movement, Caliber 3235, it also defies the historical logic of the range. Firstly, this Sea-Dweller is fitted with a Cyclops lens. Secondly, the 43 mm case is larger than the previous 40 mm version, making it a huge watch, a style that <strong>Rolex<\/strong> has thus far resisted despite prevailing trends and popular pressure. And the last surprise is that 126600 is a Red.<strong> Rolex<\/strong> has in fact written the Sea-Dweller name in red. More than a mere nod, this is an authentic tribute.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cela ressemble au titre d\u2019un film \u00e0 suspense, mais il s\u2019agit d\u2019une histoire d\u2019horlogerie.
