Notes
The Rolex Sea-Dweller ref 1665 is surely the most representative of the brand
concerning professional diving models. It features the exclusive helium
expulsion valve, which is essential during the decompression process after
diving at great depth.Initially equipped with the “double red writing” dial (up to ‘77),
the present Rolex 1665 is one of the series produced in that period.
