Nice article! It's interesting to know that they can test only 10 DSCs at a time. Just for comparison, does anyone know how many subs or SDs they can test at a time?

Another interesting fact is that the Piccards, who built and tested world's deepest submersible, are also from Switzerland, a landlocked country! :-)

No one will be able to get one at MSRP? Who knows when if ever these will be available?

Interesting! just saw this too but not sure it's for me.

Been out for a while now, and there's a few members here who have one.

It’s a big lump of a watch. Realistically only usable when actually wearing a dive suit for someone with small wrists like mine, but I love it.

An incredible piece of engineering

to me the 126067 is the best Rolex I ever bought since 1986

The Crystal alone weighs more than your 40m EXP I.

It’s created for zero divers as a usable tool watch. It’s a d… measuring contest with Omega and fine by me. Only elite thrill seeking divers go beyond the depth and pressure ratings of a Submariner.
