Available now is a standout example of the Rolex Sea-Dweller 16660, affectionately known by collectors as the “Triple Six” — a transitional reference that marked a major evolution in Rolex dive watch history. This particular piece dates to 1986 with a 9.3 million serial, and features an original glossy tritium dial now naturally aging into a matte finish with early “spider” patina.
As the first Sea-Dweller to feature a sapphire crystal, Caliber 3035 movement with quickset date, and upgraded depth rating to 1220 meters (4000 feet), the Triple Six bridged the gap between vintage aesthetics and modern engineering. This watch retains its original J12 / 93160 Oyster bracelet with 592 end links—exactly as configured in-period.
This tool watch delivers historic Rolex diving pedigree with unmistakable vintage charm. Whether you’re a collector or seasoned enthusiast, the Triple Six is a must-have reference.
