About the Book

"As a result, the book should provide fresh, in-depth insight into this seminal Rollie." — Robb Report "The latest release from Rolex is one for die-hard fans and to many many’s surprise, it’s not a watch."— HypeBeast "We haven't gotten our hands on a copy of Submariner yet, but the prospect of Foulkes writing combined with access to Rolex's archives has me excited." — Hodinkee "This book is not just for those who love watches but also for anyone fascinated by stories of innovation, design, and cultural influence." — The Subdial For the first time, Rolex has authorised a wide-ranging account and full history of the Rolex Oyster Perpetual Submariner watch, in the first of a series taking a deep dive into the watches of the iconic brand. Oyster Perpetual Submariner. The Watch That Unlocked The Deep, written by author, editor, and watch expert Nick Foulkes, is published by global design authority, Wallpaper*, which brings its sharp, cinematic eye to the project, creating new and original photography in collaboration with Rolex to run alongside testimonies from renowned witnesses to the Submariner's illustrious 71-year history, including marine biologist Sylvia Earle, photographer David Doubilet, and aquanaut Dr Joe MacInnis – further highlighting the role this iconic timepiece continues to play in the exploration and protection of the marine environment.
