The First Rolex Submariner Watch
Rolex produced the very first Submariner in 1953 with this model ref. 6204 watch. The Rolex Oyster Perpetual Submariner would go on to not only become one of the most iconic timepieces in the world, but also one of the most heavily emulated, desired, and studied. The Rolex Submariner was the first diver's watch from Rolex and followed a legacy that started in 1926 when Rolex released its first water-resistant watch, the Oyster.Rolex really began its life in making dive watches with Panerai.

Warranty card for SD43
Hey folks- just trying to get some info as to why the one side of my warranty card for my SD43 looks a little bit different than others I've seen for sale.

I'm guessing this has to do with what country or area the watch was purchased from and are indicators for color of the dial and such.
