In the 1960s, the state-owned VEB Glashütter Uhrenbetriebe launched a wristwatch that was to become a true icon: the Spezimatic. It can still be admired today in a variety of colours and variations at the German Watch Museum Glashütte. Vintage Glashuette Original Sixties Replica Watch
The Glashutte Original Senator Sixties Replica continues to be busy to become a popular watch, and not just with Glashütte Original proprietors or vintage enthusiasts. With this great searching Sixties within an elegant night time gray-white-colored color, you will see two different types available, (“Panorama Date”) with no-date models. Glashuette Original Sixties Replica Watch
Sixties Striking and stylish at once, the typical round forms and the distinctive Arabic numerals of the Sixties line evoke the characteristic look of the 1960s. The vibrant spirit of that period is captured by stunning, retro-modern and elegant timepieces such as the Sixties Panorama Date or the Sixties Square Chronograph with its cushion replica watch,
Leaving my old GUB out of the equation, the Glashütte-Original Sixties (formerly known as Senator Sixties) is a charming, pleasantly priced, comfortably wearing, dress watch with a more than average nod to yesteryear. The Sixties indicates, as one might expect from a proper dress watch, hours, minutes and seconds. Time only thus. And with a diameter of only 39mm and a relatively slender profile of 9.4mm it also qualifies as thoroughbred dress watch. With these dimensions the Sixties also wear replica watch. glashutte original sixties price
After construction of the Berlin Wall, the VEB Glashütte Uhrenbetriebe presented the first example of the Spezimatic watch in 1964, which would go on to sell over 3.7 million copies. It later served as the inspiration behind Glashütte Original’s Sixties collection.
At Glashütte Original, beauty is a timeless obligation. Thus the refined Pavonina, Lady Serenade and PanoMatic Luna ladies’ models rely on classic elements of style, reinterpreted in a feminine way. Optimal precision engages here with irresistible forms and seductive, nuanced hues.Glashutte Original Lady Serenade Replica
The play of opposites takes pride of place: the timeless contrast of light and dark, matte and polished surfaces, clear design and playful details lends these timepieces their irresistible charm and exquisitely sensual character. replica glashutte original watch price
Simply heavenly: this elegant mechanical timepiece lends a truly heavenly dimension to the fine art of watchmaking: a striking moon phase and the feminine Panorama Date make checking the time a distinct pleasure. Replica Glashutte Original Lady Serenade
The Pavonina dates back to the 1920s, when the distinctive cushion shape was widely used with wristwatches, which had become fashionable. Its innovative quartz calibre meets the highest standards in terms of precision and resilience and translates the free spirit of Art Déco into the 21st century.
And just so the queen of hearts can enjoy every second to the full, Glashütte Original presents a special edition inspired by Valentine’s Day. The Lady Serenade is perfectly able to reconcile apparent opposites. Highly precise German watchmaking art encounters sparkling jewels and luminous red accents.
Review of the Rolex Presidents Day-Date watches introduced at BaselWorld. You may be asking yourself, how did Rolex manage to improve an already perfect watch?
Back in 1956, the Rolex Day-Date with its easy-to-spot President bracelet was seen on the wrists of world leaders, CEO’s presidents and other top level dignitaries giving it the Rolex ‘President’ title that it carries to this day. As with all Rolex Day-Date President watches released since then, the unique Rolex bracelet remained consistent with several innovations to the watch cases, materials used, dials and designs. replica rolex oyster perpetual day date diamond
A patented blue Parachrom hairspring can be found in this watch giving it 10 times the shock protection than a regular hairspring. In addition to being waterproof, Rolex added a defense mechanism to fend off unwanted EMF signals which can disrupt the mechanics of a watch with their latest innovation in anti-magnetic materials. replica rolex rose gold presidential 41mm
The nickel-phosphorous Rolex “Chronergy” escapement is one of the latest patents from Rolex which keeps the magnetic fields from generating interference which can affect the accuracy of the watch.
Each of the 4 new additions can be found in several materials including Rolex’s very own alloy, Everose gold with its unique hue of rose gold that can only be found on Rolex watches. replica rolex oyster perpetual day date 18k
In addition, they can be bought in 950 platinum, 18kt white gold, and 18kt yellow gold. As with all Rolex Day Date watches, the functions of the Day-Date include hours, minutes, second, day and date. 18k gold presidential rolex replica watch
Traditionally a sunray dial can be found on these watches but Rolex decided to kick the dial designs up a few notches by applying motifs by laser. These new motifs now add textures and patterns to an already beautiful sunray dial. In addition to the new designs, Rolex also released a few new dial colors to the equation which include Ice Blue, Silver, Sundust and Champagne. rolex oyster perpetual day date gold replica
While the aesthetical changes to this series are quite obvious and beautiful, there are a few internal upgrades as well. 41mm gold rolex president The Oyster Perpetual Day-Date 40 now houses the new in-house movement, the caliber 3255 which is a brand new innovation to this superlative chronometer giving it a 70-hour power reserve. With the Rolex President Day-Date, the best just keeps getting better. rolex president gold diamond
There is a time when professional divers look at their equipment and decide it’s time for an upgrade. Whenever one is putting their life at risk, one has to weigh the benefits of investing in some heavy-duty gear.
A diving watch is no exception and there are many watches for divers on the market that are worth a look. This article will weigh the pros and cons of choosing from two luxury watch brands that produce the most popular diving watches.
As you can see from the above picture, the Omega Seamaster and the Rolex Submariner are both great looking divers watchesand have a place on your wrist when you’re dressed up or dressed down.
For your convenience, you can examine any of these collections in a new window by clicking on the buttons below otherwise proceed with the comparison.
Take the Omega Seamaster watch for example. It comes from a well-respected and long-established Swiss watchmaker whose name is up there with the likes of brands like Rolex. These two brands are often head to head with their latest diver’s watches.
While both brands produce movements that are dependable and built to be rock-solid, the Omega Seamaster is said to be more legible underwater with more luminous fill but has a slightly lower power reserve if compared to the Submariner.
In addition, it is more affordable. At about only half the price, there is a substantial price difference between the Omega Seamaster Professional 300m and the Rolex Submariner.
PLEASE NOTE: This article was originally written for the Seamaster Diver 300m and it had since been updated to show the details for the new 2018 Seamaster Diver 300m Co-Axial Master Chronometer series.
Another great article in our blog compares the Seamaster 300m older model to the 2018 model; the Seamaster Diver 300m Co-Axial Master Chronometer and can be found here.
You’ll notice the Seamaster featured here has a date window but the Submariner doesn’t. That’s because the Sub in the above image is Rolex reference 114060. There are several models of Rolex Subs that have the date function and their trademark Cyclops magnifier lens.
There are some that prefer the appearance of Omega’s date windows since they find the Cyclops magnifier a bit distracting but then again, there are those who absolutely love it. You have to decide for yourself.
Functionality An excellent choice for a diver’s watch and is used by diving professionals around the world Antimagnetic The new Seamaster Diver 300m Co-Axial Master Chronometer has been tested to resist magnetic waves up to 15,000 Gauss or 1.5 Tesla Legibility More legible under dark conditions Helium Escape Valve This watch features a helium release valve which is helpful when a diver resurfaces and needs to manually release any helium build-up which under normal above-water pressure conditions can cause the watch crystal to pop-off. Style Options The Seamaster is a large collection with many different style options Price It is about half the price of a Rolex Submariner
Brand Recognized The Omega is a very prestigious brand with approximately 70% brand recognition worldwide but doesn’t have the same nearly 100% worldwide recognition as Rolex. 70% is still incredible, though. Resale Value The Omega brand generally has a lower resale value but this largely depends on the watch Accuracy & Precision The movement is not as accurate than a Superlative Chronometer Bezel Some say that the bezel on the Seamaster is not as easy to rotate as the “Cerachrom” ceramic bezel on the Rolex Submariner Anti-Reflective Coating The A.R. coating on the Seamaster is on the outside of the crystal whereas, on the Rolex Submariner, the anti-reflective coating is on the inside which keeps it from being scratched off.
In terms of prestige, the Rolex brand is, bar none, the most recognizable watch brand out there with almost 100% brand recognition worldwide while Omega watches is closer to 70%.
So as far as which watch is a bigger status symbol, one would have to say that the Omega Seamaster watches fall a little short. Nonetheless, the Omega Seamaster is an excellent watch from a very prestigious brand that also has great value but as a result of the difference in brand recognition, there is about a 30% loss in the resale value and street value on the Omega Seamaster compared to the Rolex Submariner.
Aside from being a COSC certified superlative chronometer, and having a slightly better power reserve, the fluted bezel on the Submariner according to some, has a better grip than the bezel on the Omega Seamaster so there are also some practical advantages to the Rolex Submariner versus the Omega Seamaster.
The model you see here is the Rolex Oyster Perpetual Submariner reference 114060 which has no date function. The Seamaster featured here does. For about a thousand more, you can opt for the Rolex Oyster Perpetual Submariner Date models starting with 116610, 116613, 116618 and 116619 that do have the date function with a Cyclopse magnifier lense.
Resale Value Rolex watches generally have a higher resale value than Omega watches but this is not a blanket statement it often depends on the watch Brand Prestige Rolex has more brand recall and is a slightly more internationally recognized brand than Omega. Precision & Accuracy The Rolex Superlative Chronometer designation means that the precision of the movement is first tested by COSC, and after the movement receives a COSC certification with impressive accuracy and precision of -4/+6 seconds per day.
The movement is then returned to Rolex. Further testing is then conducted by Rolex, in-house while in the watch case until an accuracy of -2/+2 seconds per day is achieved.
However, there are those that believe that only a third party should be responsible for chronometric designations. Bezel Some say the “Cherachrom” ceramic bezel on the Submariner is much easier to rotate than the bezel on the Omega Seamaster Anti-Reflective Coating The Rolex Submariner, the anti-reflective coating is on the inside which keeps it from being scratched off whereas the A.R. coating on the Seamaster is on the outside of the crystal which can more easily get scratched off over time.

Behold the new rose gold Rolex Yachtmaster with the Replica Rolex Oysterflex Bracelet: Rolex’s 1st Rubber Strap
With the new rose gold Rolex Yachtmaster, Rolex watchmakers held no punches and put in nearly every great idea they ever had into one amazing watch. The Rolex Yachtmaster has been around since the early 90’s and came in an assortment of materials from gold and steel all the way up to platinum. They are known for being shiny and luxurious from one end to the next. So it comes as no surprise that the world was taken by a storm when they decided to use rubber to introduce the new Rolex Yachtmaster watch reference #116655. Was it a step up or a step down for the series? PrestigeTime.com bloggers believe that pictures speak much louder than words.
Replica Rolex Yachtmaster 116655 Full Review The new Yachtmaster from Rolex is a 40mm rose gold case watch with a black dial and accented in Rolex’s very own Everose gold. Just like their proprietary 18kt rose gold alloy, Rolex will always prefers to create the status quo and not have to rise to meet it because of anyone else.
In the new rose gold Rolex Yachtmaster, they held no punches and put in nearly every great idea they ever had into one amazing watch.
Let’s start with their highly durable black ceramic “Cherachrom” bezel insert which is very resistant to corrosion. This proprietary ceramic material is extremely hard and highly scratch-resistant. It also doesn’t fade with sun exposure like others. They also used their patented “Triplock” crown which screws down and locks to the case as tight as a submarine hatch. The use of Rolex’s Everose gold which is their proprietary alloy has a perfect shade of pink gold that has a hue that is neither too feminine, nor too masculine. This versatile precious metal alloy is used in the crown, case, bezel, indexes and luminescent filled hour markers and hands.
At the core lies their in-house Rolex movement, the caliber 3135 which resonates at 28,800 vph containing 31 jewels and has a whopping 50-hour power reserve. Of course, it would not be complete without their “Cyclops” magnifier. The new rose gold Rolex Yachtmaster is also known as the m116655-0001.
Rolex is also no stranger to trending luxury watches. They tend to be the first in doing and introducing many things. While rubber has been around for a long time and has been used on many watches over the years, both high-end luxury watches and everything else. Rubber had no place on a Rolex watch until now. Rolex waited this long to introduce this material into their products not because they were hesitant to be part of the trend, on the contrary,
they wanted to revolutionize the rubber watch band before using it on their first ever rubber strapped watch. Creating the best rubber bracelet was something Rolex obsessed about until its perfection. Enter the new Rolex Oysterflex bracelet. A rubber coated two piece titanium bracelet with a patented cushioning system. The black elastomer coating is a similar substance to what you see on the Apple Watch. The bracelet has an Oysterlock clasp in solid Everose gold which seals the deal. Rolex held nothing back in reinventing and over engineering the perfect rubber bracelet that has the same elasticity of a metal bracelet without the initial cold feeling of a metal bracelet when first placed on a wrist. Now it’s just a matter of time before a platinum Rolex comes with a rubber Oysterflex bracelet.
In 2015 Rolex introduces the Rolex Yachtmaster replica watch model #116655, the first Rolex watch with the all new rubber Oysterflex band. After its creation, they saw all that they have made …and it was good.
Rolex has always been synonymous with high-octane motorsports and the Rolex Daytona is the world’s most recognizable chronograph. The Rolex Cosmograph Daytona watch series was first introduced in 1963 and has many stunning designs such as the highly polished and fashionable Rolex Daytona Steel and Gold (Model number 116523 White Index ) featured below. They are COSC certified Superlative Chronometers which are the highest available designation for a mechanical watch from the Official Swiss Chronometer Testing Institute.
Let’s take an up-close look at this iconic watch series. The Replica watch Rolex Daytona has a very dependable chronograph and features a bezel with a tachymeter which allows the measurement of speeds at up to 400 miles or kilometers per hour. The name “Daytona” is found in red on the dial on most models around the top of the bottom-most sub-dial. For those that don’t follow motor racing, this name is symbolic of the famous Daytona Beach Racing at the Daytona International Speedway which is located in Daytona Beach Florida. This speedway opened in 1959 and is where the most prestigious NASCAR race, the Daytona 500 takes place.
There are several collections in the series and they all vary in price. At the very top is the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona Platinum with an Ice Dial and Baguette Diamond Indexes (model number 116506LN). This watch has a chestnut brown Cerachrom bezel which is fabricated of a highly durable ceramic which is extremely hard and highly resistant to scratches. It also has great resistance to corrosion and is unaffected by ultraviolet light which can cause colors to fade. Of course with such impressive features come equally impressive list prices of $82,500 (watch depicted below). There are some other Daytona watches that have sold for more such as the Lemon dial Paul Newman Daytona watch that was sold for $840,000 but we’ll have to save that for a whole other story.
Aside from the Replica Rolex Daytona Rose Gold watches made of their proprietary red or pink gold alloy known in the industry as Everose gold (pictured above); the most sought after watches in this series are the stainless steel Rolex Daytona models. However, Rolex has recently stopped production on a few Rolex Daytona Stainless Steel watches. Namely, reference # 116520 which had 2 versions, one with a White Dial and another with a Black Dial. These had a polished stainless steel fixed bezels which are being replaced by two new models that feature their newer Cerachrom bezels made of their high-density ceramic material. These two were some of the most popular models from this series but now with their replacements, the 116500LN Black and the 116500LN White.
With the introduction of these two new Daytona watches, it’s as if the world can’t get enough of these …and Rolex can’t produce enough. They are possibly the hardest watches to get your hands on at the moment. It doesn’t make a difference if you are a rookie watch collector or a Rockefeller, you’ll have to wait in line just the same. The Daytona was actually called the most wanted watches in the world even though they both have a very low price tag of under $20k. These are the type of Rolex watches that have the potential to resell for more than list price after purchase. Hats off to anyone who is lucky enough to already own one of these beauties.
When you’re in the market for a chronograph (a watch with a stopwatch/timer function) you most probably have already checked out the Omega Speedmaster and the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona. These are two of the most popular chronographs on the market from two very well respected Swiss watchmakers. Each has its own great history, merits, and unique features. While there is a significant price difference between these two watches, let’s put all the money aside and just compare the watches themselves and let you decide which you think is better for your needs, the Fake Omega Speedmaster or the Replica Rolex Cosmograph Daytona. For your convenience, you can examine any of these collections in a new window by clicking on the buttons below otherwise proceed with the comparison.
One of the wonderful things about the Omega Speedmaster is the use of the new standard by Omega; the Co-Axial Escapement. This offers greater precision, stability, and durability. The Co-Axial escapement has less friction and reduces the need for lubricants which allows for a longer amount of time between routine service and maintenance. Another proprietary feature is the Si 14 balance spring, a silicon balance spring. The Si14 shows higher resistance to outside influences and shock. As a result, it enhances the performance of the chronometer.
In terms of accuracy, the Omega Speedmaster falls short when compared to the Rolex Daytona with its Superlative Chronometer designation indicating accuracy of at least -2/+2 seconds per day, impressively more accurate than the Speedmaster’s standard COSC certified chronometer designation which is only accurate to -4/+6 seconds per day. Then again, that’s what an extra $12,000 would get you. There are certain Omega watches that have a Master Chronometer designation which means that after passing the COSC certification they then go through another testing Institute called METAS. When completing the METAS testing the watch receives a designation of Master Chronometer which indicates an accuracy of 0 to +5 seconds per day.
At the moment, the only Speedmasters with METAS certified Master Chronometer designations are the Speedmaster Moonphase Co-Axial Master Chronometer Chronograph 44.25mm series and the Speedmaster Racing Master Chronometer Chronograph 44.25mm series. At the time of writing this article, these two are the only series in the Speedmaster collection that received this prestigious horological designation.

Brand Prestige The Omega brand is not as prestigious as Rolex Resale Value The Omega brand generally has a lower resale value Accuracy & Precision The movement is not as accurate as a Superlative Chronometer
In terms of prestige, the Rolex brand is bar none, the most recognizable watch brand out there with almost 100% brand recognition worldwide, while Omega watches, is slightly behind at 70%. You probably also noticed a substantial price difference between these two watches but make sure to note that a Rolex will almost always have a higher resell value. Of course, the watch itself would really determine how much money you would get when selling it. In some cases, they may even appreciate in value. To some, resale value is a really important factor, to others, there are more important things. For example, some like iconic watches and value that the Omega Speedmaster (albeit not this particular model) is tied to the moon landing since the first watch on the moon was a “Speedy”.
In terms of accuracy, the Rolex Daytona takes the cake with its Superlative Chronometer designation indicating accuracy of at least -2/+2 seconds per day, impressively more accurate than a standard COSC certified chronometer designation which is accurate to -4/+6 seconds per day.
Resale Value Rolex watches generally has a higher resale value than Omega but it always depends on the watch Brand Prestige They also have a slightly more internationally recognizable brand than Omega Precision & Accuracy A Rolex Superlative Chronometer designation means you have a more accurate movement

You need to ask yourself a few things: Which features do you value most? Which of these two watches do you identify with? What’s more important to you when making a choice between these two watches?
Now is a time where magnetic fields are everywhere. Every electronic device we use emits an EMF. Electromagnetic frequencies not only affect us as biological entities, they also affect mechanical devices and can interfere with other electronic devices. There are two luxury watches that stand up to said frequencies and we would like to conduct an in-depth comparison. Today we will pin the Rolex Milgauss VS the Omega Aqua Terra Master Co-Axial.
It’s therefore incumbent upon the luxury watch experts at watch4usale.com to put in an educated and informed opinion based on facts and based on experience with both of these magnetic resistant watches. Once we present all the facts, we will encourage you to compare them properly and in detail before making your decision.
The name used for this series seems a bit odd compared to other Rolex series names. The nomenclature of the Milgauss is a fusion of “Mille” which is French for a thousand and “Gauss”, an increment used to measure the intensity of electromagnetic magnetic fields. Rolex prides itself on the fact that the Milgauss can resist EMFs of up to 1,000 Gauss. This is done by utilizing an anti-magnetic alloy in a protective metal shield that goes around the watch movement. The case back is emblazoned with the letter B with an arrow above it which is the symbol for magnetic flux density used by scientists.
One component that is particularly sensitive to magnetic interference in mechanical watches is the coiled spring known as the hairspring, which controls the oscillation of the balance. The Rolex caliber 3131 movement features the innovative and shock resistant, blue Parachrom Bleu hairspring which can stare-down a magnetic field with both eyes shut thanks to it being comprised of an oxide coated, niobium-zirconium alloy making it completely impervious to magnetic interference. In addition to the hairspring, the escape wheel and pallet fork are also made of an antimagnetic material. The Milgauss has water resistance up to 100m/330ft. Of course, one of the most recognizable features of the Rolex Milgauss is the lightning bolt shaped second hands. The power reserve on this automatic COSC certified chronometer is approx. 48 hours.
The Omega version of the anti-magnetic luxury watch is quite impressive. Besides for the Aqua Terra having a significantly lower price tag than the Rolex Milgauss, the power reserve is an impressive at approximately 60 hours thanks to the two-barrel Omega caliber 8500, a 39 jewel movement which beats at 25,200 VpH. Omega also uses an innovative mainspring, their new silicon, the “Si 14” balance spring (maybe because Silicon has an atomic number of 14) which gives the movement greater resistance to shock, magnetic interference, and other environmental disturbances.
Omega has started outfitting their watch movements with the new and improved Master Co-Axial escapements which can resist magnetic fields up to 15,000 Gauss. So in terms of magnetic resistance, the Omega Aqua Terra Master Co-Axial eclipses the EMF resistance of the Milgauss with 15 times the amount of electromagnetic resistance than its closest rival. This is thanks to its METAS certified Master Chronometer designation. Aside from the difference in resell value, for the money, the Omega seems to outshine the Milgauss in terms of magnetic resistance as well as water resistance with up to 150m/500ft.
A new Replica Rolex Milgauss watch has a list price of $7,650, high demand and low supply can have an effect on the market price of Rolex Milgauss watches. Oftentimes they will even sell for above retail price. You can find a used Rolex Milgauss for $5,200 when lucky. While the price of even a pre-owned Milgauss is at least $1,000 more than a brand new Omega Aqua Terra, the resell value of a Rolex is usually higher. There is no denying that in terms of brand recognition, the Rolex brand is the top of the food chain, they are the single most recognizable watch brand out there with almost 100% brand recognition worldwide while Omega watches is closer to 70%. They are also some of the most sought-after pre-owned watches. However, when comparing two watches, you need to isolate what features are more important to you and weigh those against the rest of the specifications. For some, it may be the upfront price, for some, it’s the resell price or warranty duration. For some, it’s the prestige of the brand and for some others, it’s all about what’s under the ‘hood’. For your convenience, we’ve created a table to compare them side by side.
We are often asked questions about the various different diver watches from the most popular luxury watch brands as well as the differences between the different diver watches within a single brand. Our various Rolex dive watch comparisons are made to enable you to make an educated and informed purchase decision about a watch by putting the information in an easy to read format.
Divers are always looking for better equipment. It can be the difference between a successful dive and a catastrophic dive. In some cases having better equipment means you have a better chance of coming out alive. Rolex makes several dive watches that are great for diving. Their oyster cases lock down like a mini-submarine hatch and are pretty much born to take the plunge.
The two Rolex diver watches that we will compare today are the Replica Rolex Sea-Dweller 43mm / Replica Rolex Sea-Dweller 4000 VS the Replica Rolex Submariner Date. At first glance or to the untrained eye these watches look almost identical with very few yet subtle aesthetic differences. As we compare the Rolex submariner VS Sea-Dweller in greater detail you will find that they are quite different. Below is a summary of the things that these two watches have in common and the pros and cons describing the features that make each one unique. For your convenience, you can use the buttons below to view the two collections now. Otherwise, proceed with the comparison below.
Both of these Rolex watches use the 31-jewel, Rolex Calibre 3135 movement.
Both the Submariner Date and the Sea-Dweller 4000 have an approx. 50-hour power reserve. The Sea-Dweller 43mm has a 70-hour power reserve.
Black “Cerachrom” bezel insert which is made of a hardened ceramic that is very durable and resistant to scratches. In addition, Cerachrom has great anti-corrosion properties and won’t color fade when exposed to UV rays for long periods of time.
Polished stainless steel-rimmed bezel with a ribbed edge for a sure grip.
Patented “Triplock” crown which locks the crown down the Oyster case making it as tight as a submarine hatch.
Bracelet fitted with the patented Glidelock Extension System buckle – a secure deploying style with adjustments in 2mm increments to a total of 20mm without the need for tools.
The most impressive feature of the Rolex Sea-Dweller 4000 replica watch and the newer 43mm Sea-Dweller dive watch is the difference in Water Resistance when compared to the Rolex Submariner. While serious diving calls for a minimum of 1650 feet and up of water resistance, the Rolex Sea-Dweller 4000 boasts a whopping four thousand feet of resistance. See the pros & cons.

Price TagSlightly higher price tag.Material OptionsOnly available in a stainless steel case.Case ThicknessThis watch has a thicker case
The one aesthetic difference that stands out the most is the Cyclops magnifier over the date of the Submariner while the Rolex Sea-Dweller 4000 is lacking one. However, the newer Rolex Sea-Dweller 43mm does have a cyclops magnifier over the date window. For some people, this may be a deal-breaker since the date magnifier is one of the most widely used and distinct features found on most Rolex watches. There is also the functional value of the magnifier.
At Baselworld 2017, Rolex introduced a new 50th Anniversary edition, a new and larger 43mm Single Red Oyster Perpetual Sea-Dweller Reference # 126600 which now includes a Cyclops magnifier just like the Sub and has the name Sea-Dweller in red on the dial. This new version uses the Rolex Calibre 3235 movement which has an impressive power reserve of up to 70 hours. It also has the highly legible Chromalit display, a practical feature for an adventure to the abysmal subaquatic depths commonly explored by diving professionals.
Another plus side of the submariner series is that there are many more models in several materials and color combinations compared to the SD 4000 which is only available at the time of writing this in stainless steel with a black dial and black Cherachrom bezel insert. See Pros and Cons:
