Rolex Sea-Dweller 40mm Ref. 16600 – Stainless Steel – Black Dial – Automatic – 2008 – Unworn – Box, Papers & Original Receipt
Description
A true modern classic from Rolex, the Sea-Dweller Ref. 16600 is one of the most respected professional dive watches ever produced. Originally developed for deep-sea saturation diving, the Sea-Dweller combines exceptional robustness with timeless Rolex design, making it highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts alike.
This 2008 example features a 40mm stainless steel case paired with the iconic pre-ceramic black bezel insert, offering the classic tool-watch aesthetic that defined the final generation of aluminium bezel Sea-Dwellers. The black dial is fitted with luminous round hour markers and Mercedes hands, ensuring excellent legibility in all conditions.
Unlike the Submariner Date, the Sea-Dweller maintains a cleaner and more balanced appearance thanks to the absence of a Cyclops magnifier, while also featuring a helium escape valve for professional diving applications.
Fitted with a stainless steel Oyster bracelet and protected by a sapphire crystal, the watch is built for durability and long-term reliability. Powered by a Rolex automatic movement, it delivers precise timekeeping and the proven performance expected from one of Rolex’s most iconic sports models.
Presented in unworn condition, this example is accompanied by its original box, original papers, and original purchase receipt, making it an especially desirable collector’s set.
The watch has been Watch Register checked and is backed by a 12-month warranty for added peace of mind.
