The Latin phrase "Carpe Diem" originated in the "Odes," a long series of poems composed by the Roman poet Horace in 65 B.C.E., in which he writes:
Scale back your long hopes to a short period.
While we speak, time is envious and is running away from us.
Seize the day, trusting little in the future.
Carpe Diem
Various permutations of the phrase appear in other ancient works of verse, including the expression "Eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow we die," which is derived from the Biblical book of Isaiah. At the close of "De rosis nascentibus," a poem attributed to both Ausonius and Virgil, the phrase "collige, virgo, rosas" appears, meaning "gather, girl, the roses." The expression urges the young woman to enjoy life and the freedom of youth before it passes.

Rolex Submariner
The Rolex Submariner was introduced by Rolex in 1953. The design took full advantage of the Rolex Oyster case that had been invented back in 1926 and at that time it was the first watch that could be taken to a depth of 330 feet. In 1954 Rolex introduced their signature "Triplock" winding crown and the watch's water resistance increased to an amazing 1000 ft of depth. Since then the Rolex Submariner series have set the standard for all sports watches.....
