BTW, this unmolested vintage Sea-Dweller was acquired through my friend Matthew Green of http://www.bocabling.com. Feel free to contact Matthew anytime as he normally has a full-line of fine pre-owned Rolex's.

What a beautiful looking piece and worth its weight 10 fold in gold. I love these and if I could find one without taking a second mortgage out on the house I would get one. Maybe I'll get lucky someday and pick one up. A great restore job!
