Rolex 116600 Sea Dweller 4000 - 2016 - Full Set

One of our favourites at Oakleigh Watches is the Rolex Sea Dweller and one of the rarest is the Rolex Sea Dweller 4000

There’s a temptation to think of the Sea Dweller as perhaps a bit OTT until you realise that it’s really not that big, or that fat, it just has a bit more presence and gravitas than a Submariner.

This 2016 example is really excellent with sharp edges and a clean bezel – the original Heavy Oyster bracelet is perfect and solid with no stretch and a tight clasp.  The dial and hands are perfect as you would expect.  This watch has been carefully looked after – you could probably find a mark on it with a loupe but to the naked eye I would say it’s close to unmarked.

Originally launched in 2014 and discontinued after only a four year run, this 2016 watch is one of the last Rolex Sea Dweller 4000s made.

It comes with original papers, both boxes and booklets, green seal, wallet and integrated diver’s link.

Running perfectly, this watch has just been tested by a Rolex authorised watchmaker and it is running well within COSC spec and passes the normal pressure tests – it comes with a 12 month warranty – not that it’s going to go wrong.

This is an excellent example of a very popular and sought after watch – prices have risen steadily since it was discontinued after its very short four year run and this is currently as good as any available in the UK so it’s a great and rare opportunity and a guaranteed investment.
