Framed 1990 Vintage Rolex Submariner Watch Original Magazine Advertisement (ID: Rolex37)
Offered for sale here is a framed original Vintage Rolex magazine advertisement from 1990.
To prevent glare, the photograph was taken without the frame's perspex front cover. Consequently, the advertisement may appear slightly raised or uneven against the backing sheet in the image.
The text on the print reads:
Searching for a shipwreck under the Arctic ice is not for ordinary divers. Or ordinary watches.
There’s a ship out there somewhere. The somewhere was the ocean floor in Lancaster Sound, 600 miles north of the Arctic Circle.
The ship was HMS Breadalbane, caught by the ice, crushed and sunk in 1853. The speaker was Dr. Joe MacInnis, the first scientist to dive under the North Pole and the man who established the Sub Igloo, the first ever underwater polar station.
Now Joe MacInnis was possessed with the idea of rescuing Breadalbane, the world’s northernmost wreck. But first he had to determine exactly where she had gone down.
In temperatures reaching 50° below zero, with a wind chill factor of −100°F, with ice slabs ever threatening to entangle sensitive equipment, probing the ice darkened Arctic waters was a technical problem of daunting proportions.
For divers, the challenge is cold. Cold so extreme that if a man inhales so much as a tiny drop of sea water his larynx can contract and he will be choked.
It took four Arctic summers to pinpoint the location of Breadalbane. At last MacInnis’s side scan sonar picked up the shape of a barque, upright, 120 feet beneath the surface.
Two of its masts standing, 57 fathoms down. It was a moment of sheer euphoria.
“Now I’ve found her,” MacInnis exclaimed, “I want to reach out and touch her.”
But no dive under Arctic ice into the dark, freezing depths is undertaken lightly.
First, cameras sent pictures to the surface. And what their initial evidence suggested was a last discovered to be true when Joe MacInnis and his team brought to the ocean surface a perfectly preserved ship’s wheel. The very cold had constantly been a threat to her rescuers had protected HMS Breadalbane from disintegrating for 128 years.
It takes an exceptional watch to function in the Arctic sea where, for divers, a reliable watch can mean life or death.
For 15 years Dr. Joe MacInnis has relied on the Rolex Submariner. “Two worn it everywhere,” he says, “from the North Pole to the Red Sea.” We wait to see where it will dive with him next.
