Rolex Sea-Dweller 16600

Oct 31

SPECIFICATIONS:

Model: Sea-Dweller
Reference: 16600
Series: F
Movement: Rolex Caliber 3135
Water Resistance: 4000 ft./1220 m.
Case: Stainless steel – integrated helium escape valve
Crystal: Sapphire
Notes: The Sea-Dweller is appreciated not only by true professional divers, but also by many Rolex purists who prefer the it to the more commonplace stainless steel Submariner model 16610. Due to the increased thickness of the sapphire crystal on the Sea-Dweller, Rolex is unable to fit a functional date magnification bubble on the watch. I purchased my Sea-Dweller in August of 2004. I’ve found it to be a great all around sport watch – it’s robust enough to take whatever I do, and versatile enough to work with most wardrobe choices.
