This brand has been to the depths of the Mariana Trench and withstood multiple expeditions deep underwater, especially with explorer and filmmaker James Cameron (think: Titanic). Now, Rolex's recently released Oyster Perpetual Deepsea Challenge watch takes underwater journeys to new depths. The watch, inspired by one that accompanied Cameron on an epic nearly 11,000-meter descent in 2012, sets a world record in that it is water resistant to 11,000 meters (approximately 36,000 feet). It is crafted of RLX titanium with a helium escape valve and the well-known Rolex Ringlock system to ensure water resistance. The number of technological advances and performance features packed into this watch will boggle the mind.
