Rolex “Great White 1665” Sea-Dweller

Description

Up for grabs is a lovely Rolex Seadweller, nicknamed the “Great White”, circa 1979, in beautiful condition. The Sea-Dweller was designed for diving under extreme depths, and were thus fitted with a helium escape valve on the left-hand side of the case, which was used to release pressure as it built up under water.

This Rolex “Great White” Sea-Dweller is in great vintage condition.  The case has been lightly polished in the past, but with original beveled edges visible. The dial is in excellent condition, with no wear, marks, chips etc.  The original tritium lume is still present on both hands and dial, aged to a nice yellow color on the dial. The insert is original and period correct for this reference. The watch comes fitted on an original Rolex Oyster flip-lock 93150/585 bracelet, with 11 full links and very light stretch.
