To ensure the precision and reliability of its timepieces, Rolex submits each watch
after
assembly to a stringent series of tests. All new Rolex watches purchased from one of
the brand’s
Official Retailers come with a five-year international guarantee. When you buy a
Rolex, the
Official Retailer fills out and dates the Rolex guarantee card that certifies your
watch’s
authenticity.
The five-year guarantee which applies to all Rolex models is coupled with the green
seal, a symbol of its status as a Superlative Chronometer. This exclusive designation
attests that the watch has successfully undergone a series of specific final controls by
Rolex in its own laboratories according to its own criteria, in addition to the official
COSC certification of its movement.
Every Rolex is delivered in a beautiful green presentation box that is both protector
and keeper of the jewel that nests inside it. As the presentation box is also a symbol
of giving, it is important, if you are purchasing a gift, that the recipient’s first
contact with their Rolex sets the stage for revealing what lies within.

Ceramic Bezel and Luminescent Display
The 60-minute graduated, unidirectional rotatable bezel of the Rolex Deepsea enables divers to precisely and safely monitor their dive and decompression times. The triangular ézeroé marker of the graduation is visible in the dark thanks to an embedded capsule containing a luminescent material emitting a long-lasting blue glow. The graduation on the bezel is coated via PVD (Physical Vapour Deposition) with a thin layer of yellow gold. The blues found in the compression ring, the dial and the Cerachrom bezel insert combine to create a subtle oceanic palette that is accentuated by the 18 ct yellow gold of the case and the Oyster bracelet.
