Rolex Deepsea Sea-Dweller D-Blue 126660

An unworn Deepsea Sea-Dweller in Oystersteel by Rolex, featuring a D-Blue dial under a domed scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. The stainless steel uni-directional rotatable bezel has a ceramic insert, with platinum coated 60-minute graduations.

The Oyster bracelet comes with an Oysterlock folding clasp, which is equipped with the Rolex Glidelock extension system.

Fitted with a helium escape valve and a calibre 3235 self-winding automatic movement, the watch comes with some of the original factory stickers still attached, a Rolex box, both original swing tags and a new style warranty card dated September 2020, ensuring the watch is covered by Rolex, until September 2025. Do note, the stickers on the watch may vary from those in the photo's.

The D-Blue model was produced to commemorate film director James Cameron's solo dive into the Mariana Trench in 2012 – the deepest point in the world. One of the most prominent features of this 126660 is the colour gradient on the dial – gradually turning from blue to black, symbolic of Cameron’s dive into the unknown. In order to handle the pressures of the ocean, this timepiece is supported by the Rolex Ringlock system which ensures it is pressure-resistant up to 12,800ft/3,900m. The special Rolex patented helium escape valve is fitted with a spring to allow the gas to escape quickly without compromising the timekeeping and water-resistance of the watch.
