In 1961, Henri Germain Delauze formed the French diving company and collaborated with Rolex in 1970 to explore the unknown depths of the oceans. In exchange for their extensive reports and analysis, Rolex provided COMEX free Submariner and Sea-Dweller watches to use.Midway through the 1970s, COMEX placed an order for a second batch of Submariners that had a one-way pressure relief valve. This new reference number 5514 were made in about 150 pieces and had COMEX inscribed on the dial.
