Sea Dweller "Z" Series

[HongNinja]

Just found out I will be getting another "grail" of mine this week; SeaDweller "Z" series. I AM SOOO STOKED! Just thought I'd boast a little...

Anyone else own this one?? Thoughts on the SD??

[brownbear]

I have a K and I love it..
It is one of those things that can not be explained..
U will love it...

[nauticajoe]

Awesome. Congrats! I've got an M ser, but they are identical.

Can't wait to see wrist shots.

[Victis]

M Sea-Dweller here and love it

[Kanger]

I've owned a SD on two occasions. Love it each time more than the first.

[Clay]

I own 2 Sea Dwellers....

A c.1977 1665 and a Y series 16600......

Fabulous watches.......

Congrats on the pick up. Pics when you get it please

I have the M series and really like it ...alot. I like the fact that it feels more substantial on the wrist than the classic Sub or GMTII. The deeper bezel and grooves catch the light better. Therefore I think it sparkles more, which is nice IMO. Congrats!

[WylanB]

And I love it! By far my favorite rolex ever made! It's just perfect in every way. Congrats!

I've worn a 1665 rail, and loved it!

M serial here. Best Rolex I've owned.

[rogerrabbit168]

V series here, one of ten (last batch) for Canada, love it

recently acquire its big brother DSSD, love it also

SD wears more comfortable as its less weight, also SD wears better with dress shirts.

I've had two Brandon......and my first was a Z serial SD!
Unfortunately I sold it, then only to re-acquire 4 months later as an F model....After that flip, I've vowed to never flip again....I haven't!!

The SD is a fantastic watch...It's extremely well balanced on the wrist, and has a commanding presence. With it only being slightly taller in proportion to the Sub Date, there is no reason to worry about size or weight.

Enjoy the new piece!

M series here and love every second it wears on my wrist!
A real classic diver watch

Yes the SD is my own personal favourite sports Rolex and not altered a lot since its introduction in 1988/9.A few font changes different case stamps and thats about it,and just like the classic subs, the SD has quite a bit of Rolex history.

Sadly sold it a while back and miss it from time to time.
Awesome watch! Congrats!
Pics when you get it..

I have this one.

I bought it from my dearly departed mate JJ a few years ago.

He ALWAYS regretted selling it.

He is watching me now and still kicking himself.

He is also asking us all to move forward.

ps. He HATED the strap.

M serial owner here! My favorite in my collection of Rolexs!

[HongNinja]

A LOT of M serials out there! I have been lusting after a more modern Submariner/SD for awhile now, and I think I really nailed what I was looking for by picking up this Z serial. Starting falling for the "no lug holes" Rolex lines in recent times, but can still definitely appreciate oldschool Rolex sport watches.

I anxiously await my SD/Z. I will definitely post some pictures when I get it in. I probably won't be able to stop looking at it!

Thanks for everyone's awesome feedback, input, pics, and stories. Keep them coming!

My favorite Rolex sport watch followed with a close second by a polar Exp II.

For me, it is not about series, but features of design changes. Anything from F on is going to be the same design with the no hole cases. Before that lug holes, and mid-way into P you have the non Solid end links (SEL). I do not mind holes, but really prefer the SEL bracelets.

The M is better then Z, and Z is better then D is really like saying serial number 9 is better than serial number 2. It depends on the quality and care given the watch more then age. I've seen some beat up M's and some pristine F's.

Sits a little higher on the wrist compared to the sub,thats why it feels more substantial.

Not on the SD its had a SEL bracelet since the 1980s only differnce in any SD since introduction of the cal 3135 in 1988/9.Is now a non lug hole case and a few fonts and different case stamps. .

Great watch, you will not regret the purchase for a minute. I love my M serial on a nato, very comfortable.

[HongNinja]

It arrived... Met the Postman like a giddy school-boy. This thing is ridiculous. Judging from the build of this timepiece, mixed with all of your great feedback, I'm pretty dead-set on never getting rid of this beauty.

[Z-Sub]

It's awesome.

love it. You won't be dissapointed.

[Eric88]

Yes indeed, I believe it is the best single modern Rolex.
