Description

This is a Rolex Sea-Dweller 1665 Great White Vintage. The Rolex Sea-Dweller ref 1665 is one of the most sought-after vintage Rolex models of today.

The vintage models are especially sought after due to the matte dials, index markers without white metal surround giving them a less glossy appearance than their successors, and the highly domed acrylic crystal faces. The Sea-Dweller is a watch that needs no introduction, as it is unquestionably the most successful and widely known divers watch in the world. It is the watch that set the standard in professional divers watches and one that most other divers watches aspire to emulate. This watch is renowned the world over as it has been used by commercial divers and leisure divers alike. It has been issued to divers working for under water pipe laying companies. It has been issued to divers working on oil rigs, and used by non-commercial divers all over the world – such as the reliability, robustness and practicality of this watch. It is equally at home being worn with a suit or for weekend leisure. It is 300 metres resistant, sturdy uni directional, ratchet operated rotating bezel with screwed-down crown and scratch-resistant sapphire crystal.

This Rolex Sea-Dweller 1665 went into Rolex for a full overhaul where they replaced the case and bracelet, so the case itself is in mint like-new condition and so too is the bracelet, they did leave the original matte dial as it was in perfect condition and the patina on each hour marker is yellow and completely even throughout.
