With white gold surrounds and glossy black dials, the Submariner of today has become a status symbol and a piece of jewelry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut from it’s origin, the Rolex Submariner was a stripped down tool watch, designed with one mission in mind. The clean, matte black dial and symmetrical hour plots was the hallmark of sub-aquatic, form-meets-function design. For decades, the Submariner was not a collectible Rolex; it was seen as a hardy watch chosen by those who needed something that could take a beating. And it did.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rolex","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31336110882903,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0809\/1255\/products\/ROLEX_SUBMARINER_DATE_RED__AS03520_5.jpg?v=1576180446","url":"https:\/\/www.analogshift.com\/products\/rolex-red-submariner-as03520","provider":"Analog:Shift","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
