"We have to say, it's really great to see Rolex still getting involved with projects like this. They certainly don't have to, but to understand what Rolex is today, one must understand how they got there - and it was adventures like the dive into the Mariana Trench back in 1960s that helped create the incredible brand that exists today."

well said!
