A Diver’s watch is meant to be legible, robust, precise, and most importantly, watertight. The following eight dive watches, which made a tremendous impact at the leading watchmaking and jewellery event, masterfully encompass all of these characteristics.

Waterproof to 3,900 metres (12,800 feet), the new Oyster Perpetual Rolex Deepsea features a 44-mm Oystersteel case with redesigned lugs and sides and a broader Oyster bracelet, as well as a correspondingly adapted Oysterlock folding safety clasp.
