I just received my new (2006 'F') ebay won Sea Dweller that came with everything, box papers, tags, Yada, yada. My question concerns the diver extension. The Rolex signed piece inside the clasp (the straight one) has the letter S on it and there's another piece in the box with an L on it that also has an oyster link attached to it. Obviously these stand for "short" and "long" but I'd like to know if both pieces usually come with this watch or, if the extra piece was a dealer part? If that's the case, which one is the factory installed one?

Thanks, guys. I'll post some pics after my AD checks it out in the morning and does a pressure check.

Thanks, I'm looking forward to a long relationship. Can you tell me which diver link, the Short or the Long comes installed in the bracelet from the factory?

Both are divers links, I have always seen it come with S, just depends on what type of wet suit you wear and the thickness.

That makes sense now that I look more closely at both links. The Long one must be for a thicker wet suit and it also is so long that only 3 of the 4 micro adjustment holes are usable when it's installed on the bracelet. Thanks for the info.

It's not a Deep Sea SD but the regular Sea Dweller 16600. But, I do appreciate the good wishes.

It comes with both, the "S" is pre-fitted.

the "S" link is fitted, as has been said..

The other longer "L" link, along with the screwdriver tool, screw, and dive tables are all included in the accompanying Tool Kit for the SD.......
