SUMMARY

To celebrate the Sea-Dweller’s 50th anniversary, Rolex introduced the reference 126600 in 2017. Still a fully-equipped dive instrument, some key updates were introduced including a size increase to 43mm, and for the first time on a Sea-Dweller, the iconic cyclops date magnifier. Fans of vintage references will appreciate the red “SEA-DWELLER” script - a nod to the first models released in the late 1960s.
