Rolex watches witness a deep sea breakthrough 50 years ago
    On January 23, 1960, U.S. Navy Captain Don Walsh and Swiss inventor Jacques Piccard drove the Trieste, a deep-sea submersible, into the Mariana Trench. Challenger Abyss at the center of Mariana Trench (about 200 miles from Guam, Pacific). Rolex and the U.S. Navy submersible make history together-outside this Swiss-designed and manufactured submersible, a Rolex watch is fixed. This third-generation Rolex Oyster prototype Deep Sea Special watch has been specially designed to easily withstand a huge pressure equivalent to 8 tons per square inch on the challenger’s abyss of more than 10,916 meters.
Deep Sea Submarine Trieste
   Trieste and the two forward-looking explorers surfaced after eight and a half hours. They successfully created a record of the depth of the submersible (manned or unmanned) and witnessed This record Rolex Deep Sea Special watch still maintains perfect performance in the process. A few days later, Picard wrote in a telegram to Rolex’s headquarters in Switzerland: ‘I am honored to announce that Rolex watches also keep their normal timekeeping at 11,000 meters underwater, as precise and excellent as land.’

Not only can they admire the magnificence and magnificence of the deep sea, they can also see wonderful rare creatures. These precious creatures were captured by oceanographers for deep-sea diving missions and used for scientific purposes. They are coated with resin glue to maintain their original shape and color, or they are turned into lifelike specimens by special methods developed by the French National History Museum’s herbarium, and then stored in a marine environment Only in the aquarium finally appeared to the public.

   Another purpose of holding this exhibition is to stimulate people’s feelings for the unfamiliar deep sea through the interaction of vision and images, so as to arouse everyone’s awareness of protecting the ocean.
