For diving replica watches, 300 meters of waterproofing is enough to cope with most usage scenarios. However, as of now, replica watches with a waterproof rating of more than 1,000 meters still account for a considerable proportion. In particular, the performance limit of mass-produced diving watches has jumped significantly from 3,900 meters to 11,000 meters in recent years, and there is still a trend of continuous improvement. In fact, as an important stage for manufacturers to demonstrate their technical strength, the strategic significance of deep diving counterfeit Rolex watches is far greater than their practical significance. In the past, when mentioning such products, the first brands that players think of are Rolex and Omega. The arms race between the two manufacturers in this field has started since the last century.
11,000 meters is the depth of the Mariana Trench, the deepest part of the earth, which means that this watch can freely enter and exit any waters. In fact, as early as the 1960s, counterfeit Rolex developed an experimental watch that could dive to the bottom of the Mariana Trench, but the exaggerated size of this sample was destined to not be put into mass production. After more than 60 years, after great progress in watchmaking technology, a mass-produced model with optimized appearance: the Deep Sea Challenge model came out.
To achieve such radical performance, the counterfeit Rolex Deepsea Challenge uses an RLX titanium (grade 5 titanium) case, which is lightweight, pressure-resistant, and corrosion-resistant, perfectly suiting the needs of a deep-diving watch. However, considering the strength of the material, the watch still has a diameter of 50mm, and the 23mm thickness makes it difficult to wear comfortably – and this is also the biggest controversy of this work.
In comparison, the Omega Ocean Universe Ultra Deep 6000m professional diving watch, which controls the size within the “daily wear” range and achieves a balance between performance and experience, performs much more reasonably. In terms of size, the Ocean Universe Ultra Deep uses a 45.5mm titanium case and a thickness of 18.1mm, which is not much different from many thousand-meter-class diving watches, but this is a performance monster with a waterproof rating of 6000 meters.
