Absolutely the best sport divers Rolex ever made and the last true Sea Dweller…40mm - refined lugs, mate dial and non cyclops… perfection

The best kept secret in the Rolex watch world. The perfect Rolex diver.

Been wanting one of these for ages (umm, since mid 2014 :-)), and then when it was discontinued, I simply HAD to have one at the first opportunity. And I got one! Instant keeper, absolutely no doubt!!

A wonderfully robust watch with meat on its bones. I knew of the sea dweller but wasn't overly familiar with them when I bought my Submariner. Since then, I've watched many videos showcasing these Sea Dwellers and I almost regret not choosing one over the sub. Great video, fantastic watch

Detailed and thorough review thanks Tim, bought my sea dweller in Jan have not taken it off since. My opinion is this watch has stayed traditional to the rolex diver watches especially with no cyclops and the much more elegant case being the tapered lugs. The new sub super case is far to wide and reminds me of an AP royal oak. Furthermore this watch is far more understated and scarcely scene on wrists.

I was fortunate to purchase this timepiece and it’s a phenomenal addition to my Rolex collection. Perhaps the most solid feeling watch over owned.

Hi. So in this video, you say that Lug to Lug is 46 mm. In the other review on this watch, you said 47 mm. So which is it?? Is it a lot smaller than the SubC or is it just the 1 mm as the early video said?? Thanks

Hi Tim, could you review and weigh a Panerai 351 please? and please provide your opinion on that 1950 case vs. the newer 1312 case and new movement refinements? Tks

Hi eal15, I'll do this as soon as we have one in-house. If it pops up on the website and I miss it, shoot me an email reminder. Best, Tim

My favourite Rolex diver less common than the Submariner

Indeed, and very below-the-radar. It's a great Rolex in every traditional sense. Best, Tim

116600 better than 16600 ?

Yes it is :)

Barely. It's got a maxi dial and a ceramic bezel. Other than that it's the same. Maybe the 3135 rather than the 3035, but other than the more magnetic resistance there isn't much difference. Still, I prefer the cerachrome bezel over the aluminum one.

@myscrnnm Жыл бұрын

@@bloodymarvelous4790 Those are huge differences. The Cerachrom bezel will never fade and never scratch. Huge aesthetic and functional improvement over the aluminum insert. Also most importantly, the 116600 has a solid machined Oysterlock clasp with Glidelock. If you've ever actually held a five digit versus six digit Rolex dive watch, the difference between the build quality is night and day. All six digit reference Rolex watches have solid end links, solid center links, and machined Oysterclasps. The 16600 and those before it had those godawful soda can clasps that rattled around and were pretty terrible when you compared them to what other watchmakers from that era (eg. Omega, Jaeger-LeCoultre) were putting on their watches.
