Rolex Sea Dweller Ref. 16660 - Circa 1986 with stunning patina.

CONDITION REPORT

The Dial

In a mesmerizing display of contrast, the tritium luminescent hour markers and hands of this remarkable timepiece are enveloped by the rich darkness of its pitch-black dial and bezel. The deep yellow patina that adorns them glows brightly, adding an alluring touch of vintage charm to its already striking aesthetic.

The Sapphire Crystal

Although the cyclops lens is a common feature in most Rolex models, it was not included in the ref. 16660, which instead introduced the sapphire crystal to the Sea-Dweller collection. The absence of the lens at the 3 o'clock position sets the ref. 16660 apart from other Rolex models and adds to its unique charm.
Overall Condition

This timepiece is in superb condition, with no visible scratches or dings on the edges, which are sharply chamfered, indicating that it has been recently polished. Although the bezel insert has some minor marks, as shown in the images, the dial is in excellent condition, save for some areas of oxidation around the date window. The luminous dots and hands have aged gracefully to a dark yellow hue. The bracelet comprises 14 links, four of which are removable, and there is minimal stretching. An incredible example available today at The Second Hand Club.
