Rolex titanic

Rolex SD deepsea is rated at 12800ft, and the titanic shipwreck is at 12500ft
Maybe rolex should have called it titanic instead of deepsea, since it can withstand a dive to the titanic shipwreck and not beyond, and it is a titanic of a watch too

Yeah, but it'll remind people of the tragic event(s)! So, may not be a good idea from that angle ...

Aligning one’s brand with the universally understood symbol for hubris is probably not the best play.

IBTL: I think, after the Titan's fail, this topic is a complete epic fail.

Why would Rolex associate themselves with a tragedy that saw the death of some 1,500 people?

Great idea, and then maybe they change the GMT to the Hindenburg!

Is it too late to rename the submariner?
