Seadweller 2006
Hi looking at adding this to my collection, it's from a seller on ebay, it's a 2006 seadweller, looks like it has a few knocks etc.. my only concern is that at the 6 0 clock where it says Swiss Made, it doesnt have the longer indent between 'swiss' and 'Made' like my 2008 one has, is this correct for a 2006 model? I have enclosed some pictures below.

The Rolex etching was never put on the seadweller, my 2008 hasn't got it. It was more the fact that the indent at 6 o clock wasnt as pronounced as the ones on the later models, can anyone comment on that???
Thanks!! |

Thanks AstraZen, no guessing where you work!!
I've checked the blowers site and he hs a 2006 model on there whichhas the same dial, it must be a slight change but just wanted to check, not so easy to return if it's from Japan! |

By etching, the laser etched crown is on the crystal of my M-SD....if you mean the inside chapter ring (ROLEX-ROLEX-ROLEX) then no....

Sorry Brettpaul you are correct! My mistake didn't explain myself very well.
