The Rolex Projext X Stealth Watch Series is Inspired by the SBS

Channel your inner James Bond and military man personas with the Rolex Projext X Stealth watch. This luxurious yet heavy-duty timepiece is the manliest one that not only will you ever come across, but will ever need in your accessory arsenal.

Inspired by the SBS, the legendary British Royal Navy's special forces unit, the Rolex Projext X Stealth watch definitely means business. Of course, with a price tag of 8,750 to 9,950 pounds (about $14,000 to $16,000), this isn't your typical military necessity.

Rugged yet refined, the Rolex Projext X Stealth watch is available in either a satin silver or matte black carbon-coated case. Each piece also features a SBS 'Frog, Paddle and Parachute' Insignia and the motto 'By Strength & Guile.'
