Hi,

Is there a Chrono version of Rolex submariner? I saw a watch on someone's wrist which looks like a Submariner (Hands, the date window and overall config) but had the sub dials and pushers for chrono!!

I did the search but could not find any info.

Rolex never made a chrono Sub to my knowledge. The only chrono watch they have is the Daytona.

Simple answer is no, Rolex have been producing the Submariner model since it appearance in 1953,model #6200 and launched at the 1954 Basel spring watch fair, model #6204. It has seen many changes from different depth ratings to crown guards, larger case and now COSC rating, other changes more subtle, sword hands for RN issue 3/6/9 numerals replacing markers, on some models and some very rare COMEX issue sub's, green bezel the LV dial colour gold and bi-colour metal.

But there has never been a 'Chronograph' version only now the 'Chronometer' the COSC the current sub. I cannot think of another watch model that has now been in continuous production for nigh on 60 years and probably just as popular now as it was then.
