Ref: R5478 Rolex Sea Dweller 16660

Sea Dweller : Rolex The Sea-Dweller is a line of diver's watches developed in 1960's noted for its extreme water resistance. When Comex (Compagnie Maritime d'Expertises) set the world open-sea diving record at a depth of 534 meters in 1988, the Oyster Perpetual Sea-Dweller accompanied the divers on their mission – it has since become standard equipment among the world of marine engineering. The late founder of Comex said of this model, that “having a precise, robust, reliable watch was of vital importance.” David Duggan Ref: R5478 Model Ref: 16660 Case: Stainless Steel Bracelet Color: Bracelet Material: Watch On Bracelet Gender: Male Availability: True Case Material: Stainless Steel Box: False Certificate: Archive Extract: True
