It established the grammar that would define the model: Oyster case, screw-down crown, unidirectional rotating bezel graduated to 60 minutes, water resistance to 100 metres. The lineage developed along two branches. The no-date Submariner encompasses references 6536, 5508, 5512 and 5513, the latter produced from 1962 to 1989. The Submariner Date opened in 1966 with reference 1680, the first to incorporate a date window and cyclops. Technical evolutions followed: calibre 1520 then 3130 and 3135, the replacement of plexiglas with sapphire at the turn of the 1980s, and water resistance increased to 300 metres.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCharacter\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRolex service dial.
