For sale is a stunning Rolex Sea-Dweller 16600, a true classic in the world of dive watches. The watch is in overall excellent condition with light patina on the tritium dial, adding to its vintage appeal while maintaining the robust characteristics that made the Sea-Dweller one of Rolex's most respected models.
The 16600 model, also known as the "Sea-Dweller 4000," was first introduced in 1988 and remained in production until 2008. It represents the perfect balance between the professional dive capabilities of the Sea-Dweller and the luxury finish expected from a Rolex. Featuring the iconic 40mm stainless steel case, the 16600 boasts a helium escape valve for deep-sea diving, ensuring the watch can withstand extreme underwater pressure without compromising its integrity. The watch is powered by the iconic 48hr Rolex Cal. 3135 movement, known for its exceptional accuracy and durability.
This particular 1991 production X series unit is in excellent condition, showing just the right amount of patina, adding a vintage charm without detracting from its overall integrity. The black bezel insert retains its deep, rich color, with the luminescent markers.
For collectors, the Rolex Sea-Dweller 16600 is an essential model, often regarded as a more refined and slightly rarer alternative to the Submariner. This full set dated 19 July 1993 represents an excellent opportunity to own a piece of Rolex history that won't disappoint you!
