My new Sea Dweller

The last time I bothered to try on a Sea Dweller was my fathers about 15 yrs ago....it was a Double Red.

I'd forgotten how beautiful they actually are and pictures really don't do it justice. Anyway here's a few I took earlier.

Awesome grab. I was torn between the SD and the Sub, but I got my sub for a price I couldn't refuse :)

This will make you smile....
This is taken form another watch site.....

.........., we have compiled a list of the Top 10 most desirable watches available today. These watches are fine examples of the most beautiful timepieces ever made both recently and dating back several decades.

Most of these watches will remain collectible editions, so if you are lucky enough to own one of the below watches, we hope you enjoy our reviews.

Rolex Sea Dweller
Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Chronograph
Breitling Emergency
Panerai Radiomir 1936 Special Edition
Patek Philippe Calatrava
Rolex Cosmograph
Omega Seamaster "James Bond"
Rolex Submariner Non-Date
IWC Big Pilot
Audemars Piguet T3 - The Terminator

1. Rolex Sea Dweller

No. 1 of Top 10 Watches
The Rolex Sea Dweller is an iconic watch; it is highly regarded within the watch trade and with watch enthusiasts as the watch never to let you down. It is a must have in the watch collection.

Throw it against a wall, climb a mountain or actually use it to dive to 4000 feet and it will still keep on going, an outstanding watch.

It has changed so little throughout its life, with simple subtle changes to the case and bracelet. Over the years there has been a few dials made for the Sea Dweller, with the most famous and desirable being the “Double-Red Sea-Dweller Submariner Mark II” version, it has two lines of red text SEA DWELLER, SUBMARINER 2000 on the dial, escalating the price into the tens of thousands.

Other very famous and very rare versions of the Sea Dweller are those given to the COMEX divers, all divers’ working for COMEX since 1974 have worn one of these amazing timepieces.
