Rolex Deepsea Sea-Dweller D-Blue NOS 116660

An unworn NOS Deepsea Sea-Dweller in Oystersteel from Rolex, featuring a D-Blue dial covered by domed scratch resistant sapphire crystal. The black ceramic unidirectional rotatable bezel features 60 minute graduations coated in platinum.

The Oyster bracelet comes equipped with a folding Oysterlock clasp. Fitted with a helium escape valve and a self-winding automatic movement.

With it's original factory stickers still attached, the watch comes complete with a Rolex box and warranty card dated March 2015. To find an unworn D-Blue 116660 with it's box and papers is becoming much rarer as time passes, especially one with it's factory stickers.

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, representing 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.
