THE ROLEX SEA-DWELLER "GREAT WHITE" REF. 1665
Rolex introduced the Sea-Dweller in 1967 via ref. 1665. It followed the Submariner, which came to market over a decade earlier in the mid-1950s. Like the Submariner, the Sea-Dweller offered substantial water resistance via a screw-down crown.
However, while the Submariner produced during the same era as the first Sea-Dweller was waterproof up to 200 meters/660 feet, the Sea-Dweller boasted resistance to depths of up to 610 meters/2,000 feet. That depth rating would eventually increase to up to 1,220 meters/4,000 feet with 5-digit models and up.
