As the newest edition on the Baselworld, a 50th anniversary edition has been brought out by Rolex Replica of its renowned Sea-Dweller, include the well-known red text. In spite of the predictable shortage of the new model, not all of the retro tweaks pleased diehard Rolex fans, for who the innovative Double Red Sea-Dweller keeps a holy grail. Now London’s prominent Project X Designs has make known their own tribute to the 1967 original with those purists in mind.
That represents a momentous premium over the new Sea-Dweller, which assuming you can get hold of one. For all of its good-looking appearance, some would say Rolex Replica went a bit away modernizing the new 43mm Sea-Dweller, particularly with an extra a “Cyclops” date lens, which many think ruins the model’s streamlined look.Rolex Replica
There is no controversial cyclops lens on the Project X version, one suggestion that it is actually made to narrowly look like the initial prototype Sea-Dwellers known variously as the “Single Red”, the “MK0”, “MK1” and “Patent Pending”, which can command a high price on the unusual occasions when they surface at auction. Project X’s piece is at the basis of the ceramic bezel Sea-Dweller, the reigning Sea-Dweller model previous to replica Rolex’s update. It is restricted to just 67 examples in honor of the original debut year. Other evidences as to its stimulation comprise the extra-large word DATE in respect to the first time a Rolex dive watch had featured this complication; the vintage patinated style of 5 minute markers; and visible lug holes on the case sides.
In the end, the words ‘OYSTER GAS ESCAPE VALVE’ & ‘PATENT PENDING’ is in the back case, font and location of the original vintage ‘Single Red’ Sea-Dweller finished with a black enamel bezel, and the sole restricted version number for each replica Rolex watch is written follows the below format: ‘1.67’ It’s not the first time Project X, whose blacked-out replica watches have been spotted on the wrists of Kanye West and Daniel Craig, which has created a “heritage” edition of a well-known Rolex model. Actually it predicted another excellent Rolex design, the new cerachrome Daytona is with a limited edition version which integrated a number of the prominent “Paul Newman” dues to boot. Keep an eye on these guys. 

Omega’s investment in Emirates Team New Zealand’s bid to capture the America’s Cup has just paid off big time. The Kiwis scored a historic victory against Oracle Team USA, backed by rival watch brand Panerai, in Bermuda. Land Rover BAR, backed by Zenith, was knocked out in qualifying races as ETNZ emerged as a major threat to Oracle’s supremacy.
It seemed a little late in the schedule when the replica Omega announced two special edition replica watches for the Cup several weeks ago. What a pity, it looks like they knew their teams would come out on top. This fake Omega equipped the winning crew with a uniquely-made Speedmaster designed for yacht racing, the Speedmaster X-33 Regatta ETNZ. Its regatta function permitted the team to keep track of the critical five-minute countdown to the start of each race. The brand introduced a commemorative Seamaster Planet Ocean Deep Black ETNZ edition as well.
Omega’s partnership with Emirates Team New Zealand actually began in 1995. It was when they first won the America’s Cup with legendary round-the-world skipper Sir Peter Blake. The team won again in 2000 and came very close in 2013 though that bid ultimately failed. Meanwhile, Omega replica launched two watches for this event as well as increased its sponsorship over the years. This year, their logo was prominently featured on the ETNZ boat. 
“Everyone at Omega is thrilled with this incredible result,” says Omega President and CEO Raynald Aeschlimann. “We’ve followed ETNZ’s America’s Cup journey from the start and always believed they could win. They came to Bermuda with an inspiring team spirit along with the best innovation possible and it was my personal pleasure to spend time with them and cheer them on. It’s a privilege for our brand to have played a part.”
Such a trophy as this which dates from1851 is an honor. What’s more, they get awarded for their efforts they get an added perk. ETNZ essentially holds the chance to make the rules and pick the next location for this prestigious event. This means it will almost surely take place in Auckland, New Zealand under the auspices of the Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron. While Zenith boss Jean-Claude Biver is likely to be fuming at the reversal of fortune, it wasn’t a total loss. In terms of fake watches, Panerai’s limited edition pieces were definitely the most amazing. Omega replica now has time to develop even greater America’s Cup watches and with the winners in their corner, we expect something pretty great.

TAG Heuer Autavia is one of the largest new watch releases of the year for vintage fans. The result of the Autavia Cup competition, which asked fans to vote on their favorite vintage model for TAG Heuer to recreate, the watch takes the brash ’60s racing style of the original and makes it the basis of a thoroughly contemporary watch. We showed you the prototype last year and gave you the full specs of the final model when it debuted officially at Baselworld. But that’s just the beginning of the story.
Jeff Stein – founder of OnTheDash, and Talking replica Watches veteran – is the authority on all things vintage Heuer. So, obviously, when I heard he’d taken delivery of his 2017 Autavia, I knew we needed to talk. Luckily, Jeff is a generous man and offered to do an on-the-record interview after spending some serious wrist-time with his new watch.
We talked about how Jeff first heard about the new Autavia, his involvement in the process, and why, even as a hardcore Heuer guy, he was still able to find some surprises in the new watch.
My introduction to the watch was in November 2015. I was in New York for the replica TAG Heuer’s releasing of the Connected watch, and was just sort of hanging out with the guys from TAG Heuer Replica. I had known many of them for a while as pen pals and from swapping emails and such. This was the first time that I had met the social and electronic media guys, and they introduced me to Jean-Claude Biver, and we began talking about the recent surge in interest in the vintage Autavias. TAG Heuer Replica
Of course, he’d had the thought before, but I suggested to him that this would be the perfect time to do a reissue of the Autavia. Therefore, we started looking at my website and searching for the various versions, and talking about which ones collectors were chasing, which ones had the value in the market, etc. He basically looked at me and said, “Well, you guys, the collecting community, tell me which one you want and you’ll have it in early 2017.”
He said there were two conditions. It had to be a traditional round case, the style of the 1960s, and it had to be an acceptable modern size. He threw out 42 millimeters, which is exactly what it turned out to be.

The replica Rolex brought out a 50th anniversary edition of its legendary Sea-Dweller at the latest version of Baselworld, which complete with the famous red text. In spite of the anticipated scarcity of the new model, not all of the retro tweaks pleased diehard Rolex fans, for the original Double Red Sea-Dweller remains a holy grail. Now London’s prestigious Project X Designs has come out with their own tribute to the 1967 original with those purists in mind.
For all of its surface good looks, some would say the fake Rolex went a little too far modernizing the new 43mm Sea-Dweller, especially with the addition of a “Cyclops” date lens, which many think ruins the model’s streamlined appearance. 
The Project X version does not have the controversial cyclops lens, one indication that it is in fact made to closely resemble the earliest prototype Sea-Dwellers known variously as the “Single Red”, the “MK0”, “MK1” and “Patent Pending”. Project X’s piece is based on the ceramic bezel Sea-Dweller the reigning Sea-Dweller model prior to Rolex’s update. It is limited to just 67 examples in honor of the original debut year. Other clues as to its inspiration include the oversized word DATE in homage to the first time the fake Rolex dive watch had featured this complication; the vintage patinated style of 5 minute markers; and visible lug holes on the case sides.
The case back features the words ‘OYSTER GAS ESCAPE VALVE’ & ‘PATENT PENDING’ in the style, font and position of the original vintage ‘Single Red’ Sea-Dweller finished with a black enamel bezel, and the special limited edition number for each watch is written in the following format: ‘1.67’ It’s not the first time Project X has produced a “heritage” edition of a legendary Rolex model, and the blacked-out replica watches have been spotted on the wrists of Kanye West and Daniel Craig,. As a matter of fact, it anticipated another smashing replica Rolex design, the new cerachrome Daytona, with a limited edition version that incorporated some of the famous “Paul Newman” attributes to boot.

According to our deep look at the GMT-Master family of replica watches, we now turn our attention to the replica Rolex Sea-Dweller collection. From the very first Sea-Dweller to the brand new model unveiled at Baselworld this year, let’s share the history of the Rolex extreme diver’s watch. To begin with, we will talk about the fake Rolex Sea-Dweller model “Double Red Sea-Dweller.”
Compagnie Maritime d’Expertises, aka Comex, is a French company involved in deep diving operations. Founded in 1961, Comex and Rolex established a relationship early on. Comex needed watches which could withstand very deep diving expeditions, so Rolex obliged. This vintage timepiece from Rolex is a historically important watch and a stepping stool for future Sea-Dwellers to come. 
The replica Rolex modified the Submariner and fitted it with a Helium Escape Valve (HEV). The patented Helium Escape Valve mechanism allowed the watch to launch built-up helium and other gasses as the watch traveled down to more extreme depths. Therefore, this prevented pressure damage to the watch, thus Rolex replica now would be able to produce nice diving watches.
The performance of those Comex-modified Submariner watches did so well, it set the blueprint for a new Rolex model. The new replica Rolex Sea-Dweller was born in 1967. The official name of the inaugural model was the Sea-Dweller Submariner 2000. But, it’s more commonly referred to as the Double Red Sea-Dweller or DRSD for short.
The very first Sea-Dweller from 1967 was the other model. Compared to the Submariner, it had a thicker case among other things, the helium escape valve, a domed crystal protecting the face of the watch, engravings on the caseback, and no Cyclops lens over the date window. However, one of the most distinguishing factors, and the reason for the watch’s nickname, are the two lines of red text on the black dial. In red, we read “SEA-DWELLER” followed by “SUBMARINER 2000,” clearly indicating that this is a souped-up version of the Sub. Rather than the 660 feet (200 meters) depth rating of the preceding Submariner, the Sea-Dweller boasted one at 2,000 feet (610 meters). This was an impressive feat for the era indeed.
Without disappointment, the Double Red Sea-Dweller is a highly-coveted vintage Rolex model. Rolex produced the DRSD from 1967 until 1977. The four main dial versions of the Double Red Sea-5 are categorized by collectors as Mark I, Mark II, Mark III, and Mark IV. 
The Double Red Sea-Dweller is a hard and sophisticated vintage Rolex model to find due to its rarity and popularity. It’s surely a grail watch by any Rolex enthusiasts’ standards. The DRSD’s value has steadily risen in the secondary market over the last decade, with no signs of slowing down. Keep an eye out for the next installment of our in-depth look at the Sea-Dweller history where we dig into the model that replaced the DRSD: the Sea-Dweller “Great White”.
