No. 2066 The dial condition and beautiful fading are appealing! Introducing a good Rolex Sea-Dweller 1665 Rail Dial 1978 All Tritium example!

Hello!

Kaneko from Commit Ginza will introduce you to some recommended watches!
Today we have a rare vintage Sea-Dweller.

Rolex Sea-Dweller MK2 All Tritium
Reference 1665 Serial 57 series (manufactured around 1978)
Cal.1570 Hard Bracelet 93150/FF580 Clasp Code VC
Accessories: Main unit only
SOLD OUT!!

The first model of Rolex Sea-Dweller, "Ref. 1665", has arrived!

The Sea-Dweller is a model equipped with a special mechanism called a "helium gas escape bubble" that automatically releases helium gas during saturation diving .

The "Ref.1665" is the early model "SEA-DWELLER" and "SUBMARINER 2000".
The model known as the Red Seed, which has a red discoloration, is famous.
Today's introduction is a logo that was manufactured from around 1977 to around 1983.
This model is commonly known as "Great White" and has a white logo.

Compared to the Red Seed, the Great White
I recommend it as it is still available at a reasonable price.

The Great White dial is classified into MK0 to MK4.
The latest arrival is the MK2 dial, which can be found on models from around 1978 to 1979.

Look closely at the chronometer notation.
"SUPERLATIVE CHRONOMETER" on the top row and "OFFICIALLY CERTIFIED" on the bottom row
"Center split" refers to the fact that the spaces between the letters are aligned vertically and horizontally.
This is a rare dial known as a "rail dial."

Even among the already rare Ref. 1665/Great White
The rail dial is hard to see.

The dial is in very good condition and remains in excellent condition.

Although it seems that there are many Great White models that are not burnt,
This particular watch has a slightly stronger cream-colored luminous index, giving it a very atmospheric feel.

The luminous hands are in good condition, although there is some slight deterioration.
The color matches the index and the very natural aging is a nice touch.

The bezel is an MK3 that matches the time period.
The insert is in very good condition for a vintage piece!

The case and bracelet of this watch are in good condition.

There are some scratches from use, but the case and bracelet are in good condition.

The middle case is not overly finished and the edges are well defined.

It's a very impressive mid-size case.

The "Ref.1665" has a thick bezel and a case that just won't hold up!!
This side view is a unique and beautiful look for a vintage model!
I highly recommend this to anyone who wants a rugged and cool model!!

This dome windshield is also attractive.

Buckle clasp code is "VC"

The bracelet is of a certain age and has slight wear,
It's in good condition and sturdy!

Finally, a wrist shot!!
This is a wonderful example with a beautiful rail dial and burnt tritium finish!

The first Sea-Dweller rail dial "Ref. 1665/MK2"
This is a recommended item in good overall condition and with well-matched parts!
Vintage Sea-Dwellers are already rare, but
It's rare to find a rail dial with such a good look!!
