Hillary and Tenzing summited Everest with Rolex on the expedition. A few months later, a special Oyster strapped to the outside of the bathyscaphe \u003cem\u003eTrieste\u003c\/em\u003e came back from more than 10,000 feet down, still keeping time. Rolex turned that double win into this ad, which introduced American readers to a new watch built for the “skin-diving” craze: the Submariner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis is launch-era Submariner advertising. The illustrated watch is the original design, with no crown guards and no model name on the dial, set between climbers on the ice and a diver on the reef. Copy covers the rotating bezel, pitched to divers tracking their air supply, and closes with an offer to write in for the free Submariner booklet. It ran in National Geographic at the start of a Rolex relationship with the Society that continues today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis is an authentic vintage print, not a reproduction, pulled from an original period issue. It’s a piece of its time that works in an office, a den, or next to the watch box. It’s the right gift for the Sub owner who already has everything.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- Source: Watches | Seller: Rob | File: rolexdependable-0001.jpg | Collections: Watches, Sports and Outdoors --\u003e","brand":"Rob","offers":[{"title":"No Frame","offer_id":67691406033056,"sku":"ROL-WAT-1953-001","price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1035\/5726\/7616\/files\/rolexdependable-0001_5a4f7c03-96a3-47d0-883a-e1c1cf90ae1b.jpg?v=1791971656","url":"https:\/\/adsforlegends.com\/products\/vintage-1953-rolex-submariner-top-of-the-world-to-bottom-of-the-sea-print-advert","provider":"Ads For Legends","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
