Sea-Dweller 16600 - Unworn NOS with Stickers - Full Set (2003)
Insured express shipping is always included
An exceptional time-capsule example of the 40mm Sea-Dweller 16600, presented new old stock with all factory protective stickers and original hangtag still in place. From the final years of the Y-serial era, this unworn piece captures the last chapter of the pre-ceramic, aluminum-bezel Sea-Dweller in a state almost never encountered on the market today.

The 16600 was the last Sea-Dweller to carry Rolex's classic aluminum bezel insert and 40mm case proportions before the ceramic 116600 took over in 2014, and finding a sealed, unworn example of this generation is a genuine rarity for collectors of modern Rolex tool watches.
