The Rolex Deepsea 136660 is the steel diver for someone who wants the engineering to be part of the experience: its substantial case is built around a pressure-resistant Ringlock system. It wears tall and unapologetically large, but that physical presence is precisely what separates it from a Submariner.

Introduced in 2022, this generation keeps the 3235 movement of its predecessor while refining details rather than reinventing the watch. Choose the D-blue dial for its blue-to-black gradient and green Deepsea lettering, a nod to the 2012 solo descent into the Mariana Trench; the Black dial gives the same formidable construction a quieter face.

One practical distinction: the 136660 drops the previous generation’s folding Fliplock dive extension but retains Glidelock adjustment. For everyday wear, that fine adjustment matters on a watch with this much mass.

What owners love

On the D-blue version, the blue-to-black gradient changes noticeably with the light, and owners often say that dial is what keeps them reaching for it despite the bulk. The green DEEPSEA lettering gives it a bit of colour without overwhelming the dial.
The Glidelock clasp lets you fine-tune the fit without tools, which makes a real difference with a watch this heavy. Get the bracelet sitting snugly and it can feel surprisingly settled on the wrist rather than constantly rolling around.

Common Criticisms

The thickness and weight are the recurring reservations: the 44mm diameter is only part of the story. It sits tall, catches tighter cuffs and can become tiring if you prefer a loose bracelet fit.
The prominent ORIGINAL GAS ESCAPE VALVE and RING LOCK SYSTEM text around the dial remains a sticking point for some owners. It makes the face busier than they would like, even if they enjoy the rest of the watch.
