Footnote
The Watch Experimental Unit ‘Royal Marine’ is creatively based, using correct proportions, on the famous Rolex Military Submariner issued to the British Armed Forces in the 1970s. The dial, hands and case have been artificially aged to represent an authentic vintage style. Created in a limited-production, this heavily-aged version of the Mil-Sub is no longer available.
