RolexSea-Dweller

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 made from the previous generation.

The case was increased to 43mm, and for the first time on a Sea-Dweller, Rolex applied its iconic ‘cyclops’ date magnifier. Fans of vintage references will appreciate the introduction of the red “SEA-DWELLER” script - a nod to the first models released in the late 1960s. A trip-lock screw-down crown and helium escape valve afford the watch an impressive 4000 feet of water resistance. Attached to the case is an Oyster bracelet with the ‘Glidelock’ system into the clasp, providing the wearer with up to 20mm of tool-free adjustment. The watch is powered by Rolex’s latest generation calibre 3235 movement, which features a 70-hour power reserve, Chronometer certification, and tested after casing to a tolerance of +2 to -2 seconds per day.

This 2021 example is presented in new, unworn condition with factory protective stickers and is within the bounds of the seller’s AAA grading. The sale includes the watch’s box, guarantee, booklet and swing tag. Rolex’s five-year warranty provides cover until 2026.

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.
