PRICE REDUCED!!


The Rolex “Double Red” Sea-Dweller is an iconic watch. It is the Rolex model most representative of Rolex’s values, in my opinion. The Sea-Dweller was developed in conjunction with the French diving company Comex. Specifically, the Sea-Dweller put the helium release valve into commercial production. This “Double Red” version of the Sea-Dweller is by far the most desirable. Add to that the browning of the original black dial and bezel insert (“Tropical”) and the original Rolex box and papers, make this the nicest DRSD I have seen in a very long time. 


Never polished original stainless steel case is 40mm diameter by 16.8mm thick. The crystal is highly domed plastic. Massive screw down Triplock crown is operating perfectly. The original bezel insert has faded to gray-brown. The original bezel maintains its sharp edge, and rotates with the perfect amount of resistance. Original shoulder bevels are crisp. Serial number 4160XXX dates production to 1975. 


Original Tropical brown Mark IV Double Red dial with large luminous hour markers, with the famous red print for “SEA-DWELLER” and “SUBMARINER 2000”, and date window at 3 o’clock. Classic, desirable, rare and valuable…and beautiful!  Original movement is the automatically winding Rolex Caliber 1570 with 26 jewels, adjusted to 5 positions and temperature, and is a C.O.S.C. Certified Chronometer. The movement is clean and running. In my opinion, the Rolex Caliber 15XX movements are the best serially produced movements by any manufacture, ever. These movements are known to keep chronometer accuracy time for decades without so much as a service.  Again, the timepiece is accompanied by its Rolex box and original papers.
