Rolex is the top name associated with luxury vintage watches for men. This father's Day express your appreciation of your dad by purchasing him one of Rolex's tried and true designs. The GMT and the Submariner are Rolex's most well-known models. Use the comparisons in this post to find out which selection fits your special pop the very best.
The GMT is intended for fliers and the Submariner was the planet's first watch designed for diving. Both were introduced in 1954 at the Basel Fair. There are many similarities between the Rolex GMT and the Rolex Submariner Aside from being professional Rolex vintage watches and sharing the same launching year. Some of these include :
one. Standard case size of 40mm
two. Self-winding mechanism
3. Revolving bezel
four. A scratch-resistant synthetic sapphire crystal, giving the watches a slimmer look
five. Triplock system providing another layer of protection to the Oyster case. It includes a triple gasket system that screws down firmly onto the case tube and against the Oyster case
six. Available in 18k yellow gold, steel and Rolesor
7. The option of black bezel with black dial is also extremely popular in both these models.
How is the Rolex GMT different from the Rolex Submariner? Rolex made these 2 models to meet different professional wishes. Some of the major aspects where the watch models differ from each other are explained below :
1. The Rolex Submariner features a uni-directional revolving bezel as opposed to the bi-directional bezel found in the Rolex GMT watches. The efficiency of the bezels is different in the two models. The uni-directional bezel in the Rolex Submariner is meant to help a diver measure the elapsed time while diving. Before a diver gets enters the water, he should set the bezel so the triangle embossed on the bezel points at the present minute hand position. This may start counting the minutes while the diver descends. Similarly, by resetting the position of the triangle, he can pace his ascent as well . By measuring the elapsed time, the bezel guarantees the safeness of the diver. On the other hand, the bi-directional revolving bezel in the Rolex GMT helps the wearer to read the time in two different time-zones simultaneously.
2. Divided into 2 equal quantities, the time 600 to 18:00 represents the day and the time 18:00 to 600 represents the night. The special twenty-four hour hand is used to show the twenty-four hour time frame on the bezel. The watch features an independent hour hand, which can sometimes be set to a different time sector without changing the twenty-four hour hand and the bezel. In addition, the "one-hour" jump feature enables the hour hand to leap an hour at a time without having an impact on the minute or 2nd hand. This feature isn't present in the Submariner models.
3. The prevailing Rolex GMT Models have a water depth rating of 330 feet, while the Submariner models have a water depth rating of three hundred meters or one thousand feet.
four. All current Rolex GMT models sport a ceramic bezel, in contrast to the Submariner models.
five. The Rolex GMT models now available offer many jewelry inserted options such as diamond-paved dial, revolving bezel fitted with diamonds, sapphires and rubies and even diamond fitted lugs. Such jewelry options aren't available in the Submariner models.
Whether your dad is a diver, a pilot, or simply a man with an appreciation of fine things, one of those watches is bound to bring him joy. Contact your local jeweler today to find out how you can award your pop this father's Day with one of these wonderful high end watches.
