Seadweller Once Again

I've bought my 2nd used 16600 today. I've sold one over 10 years ago due to financial reasons. It looks so small compared with the DSSD that I've bought earlier but I think it's perfect for work and now I have my seadweller collection. I think I'm going to keep this for a long time. It was such a strange feeling to be able to buy it again.....

I recently reacquired my 16600 after selling it five years ago. It is a fantastic watch and a keeper for sure. Enjoy it!

Yew,

Congratulations! Same story here. Purchased my first SD in 04, traded in March of this year. It kept calling to me, so I finally found one. Came in the mail today.

I love the clean dial without the cyclops. Also a fan of the LV as I love the splash of color and the maxi dial, but I think this one is going to stay for awhile.

The SeaDweller is my first Rolex. I will never sell it. Too much sentimental value. Glad you had a great piece from Rolex.

Love the SD. I chose it recently over the new SubC

It's a great watch. No bling. The new Explorer tempted but I went with this one,

With a sweater...


With a jacket....



Or, on its own.
