RolexDeepsea 'James Cameron'

Offered by a private collector, this 2014 Rolex Deepsea Sea-Dweller D-Blue ref. 116660 is accompanied by its display box, warranty card, booklet, swing tags, spare links and bezel protector. Also included is an Everest blue rubber strap. Some marks and swirls are visible on the case consistent with regular wear and the watch’s condition appears to be within the bounds of the seller’s ‘A’ grading.

The Deepsea D-Blue honours James Cameron’s triumphant expedition down to the bottom of the Mariana Trench in 2012. The watch has several aesthetic changes over the standard model, including a blue to black gradient face and “DEEPSEA” script that has been moved to the bottom half of the dial and coloured bright green to match Cameron’s sub. More than tripling the depth capabilities of the regular Sea-Dweller, its water resistance is rated to an impressive 12,800 feet / 3,900 metres. The Deepsea makes its intentions clear as a robust dive watch with a stainless steel case measuring 44mm in diameter and over 17.5mm thick. Despite the size, Rolex has fitted the watch with a titanium caseback to reduce weight and enhance comfort.

The accompanying Oyster bracelet features a Fliplock wetsuit extension and Glidelock clasp, providing the convenience of 20mm of tool-free adjustment. The watch is powered by the tried and tested calibre 3135 movement that is COSC certified and has a 48-hour power reserve.

All watches offered for sale are searched and cleared against The Watch Register database and a certificate is available to the winning bidder upon request.
