Sea-Dweller

SEA-DWELLER

In 1967, Rolex changed the world of waterproof watches. . . again.  The first Rolex Sea-Dweller (Ref. 1665) was the first production wristwatch featuring a helium escape valve. This is particularly useful for saturation divers, or divers who stay underwater (and/or under pressure) for extended periods of time. Most modern Rolex watches are products of slow and steady evolution: decades of small changes resulting in a nearly perfect purpose-built tool. The Rolex Sea-Dweller is no different. It was released more than a decade into the Submariner’s life, and is very similar to the brand’s flagship dive watch. The Sea-Dweller is more robust, and thus exhibits a slightly chunkier case.
