Launched in 1967, the Sea-Dweller was a wristwatch for professional divers and a technical sensation on the watch market. Not only was the water resistance of the Sea-Dweller higher than that of any other wristwatch produced before it. The Sea-Dweller was also the first diver's watch to have a helium valve. This allowed the excess pressure created in the watch during diving to escape. Without the helium valve, as in the Submariner, for example, there was a great risk that the crystal would shatter due to the enormous overpressure.
Here you can see the triple six reference 16660 from 1983. The watch is accompanied by complete and rare original accessories:
- chronometer certificate, punched with serial number 8119xxx and country code 200 (Italy), seller's stamp "Soc. Acc. Sempl. ABATE & C." from Sanremo, Italy
- Rolex booklet in Italian
- green Rolex leather guarantee holder
- Rolex calendar 1983/1984
- Buehlmann Dive Table, decompression table
- Rolex screwdriver ref. 2100 for adjusting the bracelet
- Rolex warranty translation
- Rolex hangtag
- green Rolex presentation box
- Rolex outer box.
Apart from the full set, this specimen is preserved in fantastic condition and has a very attractive look thanks to the slightly faded bluish bezel.
