How can you tell if a Rolex Sea-Dweller is real?

On the real Rolex, you will find the rehaut engraving to be sharp and deep, allowing you to see it clearly, on the fake the engraving is much fainter and hard to see through the thick crystal. The last thing to note is the luminous hour markers: On the fake, the luminous appears to dome over the steel ring setting.

Is the Rolex Sea-Dweller single red ref 126600 waterproof?

The Rolex Sea-Dweller Single Red Ref 126600 is an epic mechanical dive watch. Waterproof to 1,220 metres (4,000 feet) it’s somehow still practical and stylish enough to wear every day. There are few dive watches of this pedigree that you can rock with a suit at the office. And a (wet)suit in the water.

Why did Rolex change the Sea-Dweller’s form factor?

The new reference is obviously a departure from the original form factor of the Sea-Dweller, but it is mostly a strategic move to make the Sea-Dweller stand out in the current Rolex line-up – especially against the Submariner – and offer an option for a bigger watch without all the technical overkill of the Deepsea.

What happened to the Rolex Sea-Dweller 4000?

So, following a six-year hiatus, Rolex brought back the Sea-Dweller 4000. The Ref 116600 introduced a slimmer 40mm case, a ceramic bezel and a Glidelock bracelet. There was still all white text on the black dial and no cyclops over the date window.
