ROLEX SEA-DWELLER 16600

The Rolex Sea-Dweller 16600 enjoyed a very healthy production run of about 20 years, having been introduced in 1989, with production halting in 2009. The Sea-Dweller has generally been regarded as the “the more professional Submariner”, due to its enhanced dimensions and features that cater to serious dive enthusiasts. Such features include a staggering 4000ft depth rating and the helium escape valve. It remains similar in appearance to its Submariner kin, giving it all the sporty elegance atop its arsenal of diving features.

The example presented here is in wonderful condition, having little to no wear at all, with the exception of the odd hairline scratch if seen under the correct lighting conditions. The movement is running very well, with a +1 second per day gain and a healthy 293 amplitude. Included will be essentially everything that came with the watch when it left the AD, with the exception of the original sales receipt.
