A Pictoral History of Dive Watches

[andrema]

I bumped into this site a while back, but it is still relevant now. It is pretty cool website that tracks the history of dive watches (up to 2008). It was interesting to me to see the evolution of this watch type and how different technologies have effected designs over the years!

It begins when Rolex introduced the first waterproof watch casing in 1927



It ends with the Rolex Deep Sea Sea Dweller in 2008.
