When you are going to be diving or snorkeling, you want a watch you can not only count on to withstand the physical trials of the ocean, but also look good when you return to port and sit down for a cocktail with friends. With these important factors in mind, we have compiled a list of the 3 best luxury diving watches ever made.

Omega Seamaster

Omega is also the watch of choice for many famous faces including Prince William, George Clooney, Nicole Kidman, Michael Phelps, and even the fictional spy James Bond. In fact, it was current Bond actor Daniel Craig that was first seen sporting the Omega Men’s Seamaster 2220.80.00 in the 2006 film “Casino Royale.” Now dubbed “the James Bond watch,” the Seamaster has become the must-have Omega dive watch and has become a symbol of true class and style. This model boasts an anti-reflective, scratch-resistant dial window and is cased in brilliant stainless steel. It is water-resistant to up to 1,000 feet, and thus is more than capable of meeting all your diving and snorkeling needs.

Rolex Deepsea

Rolex was the first watchmaker to create a model that was water-resistant and was tested by famed oceanographer Jacques Piccard in 1960. Rolex is the largest single luxury watch brand and produces an estimated 2,000 watches per day.

Rolex’s deep-sea dependability continues to this day with the Rolex Deepsea. This beautiful model is designed for true deep-sea exploration and is designed to handle depths of up to 12,000 feet. The model features a black, scratch-resistant Cerachrom disc with a titanium caseback.

The double extension band was crafted for the Rolex Deepsea model so the watch can fit over both wrist and dive suit. Its lightweight design makes it a favorite among both professional divers and those who dive and snorkel as a hobby.

Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Compressor

One such timepiece ideal for watery adventures is the Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Compressor. Built to resist depths of up to 3300 feet, this watch is more than capable of handling all your ocean-related adventures. This piece boasts a sapphire dial window and a stainless steel case with a black leather strap and also features a second time-zone window, so you’ll be able to keep track of the hours wherever your travels take you. The watch face also boasts a depth-gauge meter, so you’ll always be able to keep track of just how deep you’re diving.
