For decades, the worlds of watches and diving have come together, and choosing the ideal model for our adventures is usually not an easy decision, especially when they offer us such exquisite mechanics; in this case, Rolex is your choice and your own competitor. 
Deep-sea enthusiasts have a special connection with the watchmaking house of Rolex and nothing more; the brand has worked year after year to outdo itself in the field of diving, forming two iconic models in this regard, the Rolex Sea-Dweller and the fake Rolex Submariner, but which is the best choice?
Essentially, these two models have some common features, such as the movement, since both use the 31-jewel Rolex caliber 3135, which shows us the hours, minutes, and seconds; in addition, they both mark the date through a window to the point where we could swear that we are looking at the same watch.
Both introduced to the market a black bezel called Cerachrom, a Rolex patent, which is a durable, scratch-resistant hardened ceramic that also has corrosion-resistant properties and high durability against UV exposure, reducing the rate of color fading.
Now it’s time to test these differences between the two models, which will undoubtedly help us decide which is the best watch for our needs. The trump card of the replica Rolex Sea-Dweller is its resistance, compared to the Submariner, because if deep diving is your thing, you will choose the first model with a resistance greater than 1200 meters depth.
While this is one of several features, let’s see what the Sea-Dweller has to offer. It is a water-resistant watch, more precisely to a depth of 1,220 meters, compared to 300 meters for the Rolex Submariner; it has platinum-coated numbers to improve visibility and is reinforced with a long-lasting blue luminous material.
It may seem like a minimal detail, yet this model has the full 60 seconds on the bezel, while the Submariner only shows the first 15 seconds. If materials are important to you, you should know that the Sea-Dweller is only available in stainless steel with a steel case.
Regarding aesthetics, in the copy Rolex Submariner model, the Cyclops magnifying glass highlights the date, although one has been added to the recent Sea-Dweller model, as it is one of the most relevant symbols for the brand and a popular choices among Rolex enthusiasts.
