1978 Rolex Sea-Dweller 1665 with Mark 1 Dial

Sold

“Not Just a Submariner ”


Everything has gotten bigger but the Sea Dweller was one of the first pieces that pushed the boundary of sizing in the 60's and 70's. Designed for visibility and depth resistance the "great white" sea dweller was ahead of its time. This piece is something you will reach for in the morning not because it has more apps but because it has an almost unusable skull crushing 2000ft depth resistant. The Mark 1 dial patina and matching hands are unreal and the almost ghost grey blue insert fade is insanely beautiful. The watch has been tastefully polished to clean up the bevels and brushing but retains it's original thickness and in charge personality. The newer 93150 with 11 links and K9 bracelet code is sharp and has very light stretch from use. Not just a Submariner... it's a Sea-Dweller.
