9 | Rolex Sea-Dweller

The Rolex Sea-Dweller and Sea-Dweller Deepsea are Rolex’s saturation diving watches. While it looks very similar to the very popular Rolex Submariner, the Sea-Dweller has greater water resistance levels, especially made for professional divers, who need to be underwater for prolonged periods.

The Sea-Dweller Deepsea has a depth rating of 3,900 meters (12,800 feet), while the Sea-Dweller’s is 1,220 meters (4,000 feet). They are true tool watches, but look good enough to be worn every day.

7 | Rolex Explorer II

The Rolex Explorer II is a bold and modern tool watch that’s popular among adventurers, and those who want a functional watch that you can also wear 24/7.

Both the latest reference 216570, and its predecessor ref 16570, have the fixed 24-hour bezel which helps distinguish between day and night. Go for the 16570 for a tapered look, or choose the 216570 if you want a bigger, more legible watch.

5 | Rolex Yachtmaster

The Yachtmaster was created for yachting and sailing enthusiasts, and is often thought of as a more luxurious counterpart of the Submariner. Unlike its brother, the Yacht-Master II, which is an actual regatta watch, the Yachtmaster is a luxury watch through and through.

With a water resistance of only 100m, it was really meant to be worn on decks of yachts or lounges of yacht clubs – but many wear it as a stylish daily watch.

1 | Rolex Datejust

The Rolex Datejust is the epitome of the classic dress watch. Launched in 1954, the Datejust’s design codes have endured for decades, only making way for upgrades in movement and sizing preferences.

Apart from the variety of sizes and metals within the Datejust family, they also come with different dial colors and textures; Oyster or Jubilee bracelets; the choice of smooth or fluted bezels; and Arabic, Roman numeral, baton, and even diamond hour markers. The possibilities are endless with the Rolex Datejust!
