Underrated alert!!

[IR201]

Well it’s been a long road before I made it to this one.

The path has included the 16600, SD4K, SD43 and the 126660 JC.

I let all those go.

Was sea dweller less and had opportunity for this one.

Went for it and mannnnn I love it. Makes me question all my other black divers. I actually prefer the black to the JC for its clean and classic and pure technical look. The way the black and steel/grey blends just works.

All I see are comments “it’s gotta be the JC” and I go online for wrist shots and all I see are the JC dial. I get why. But this one deserves more respect IMO.

Cheers

Had the original and ditched it for the JC and then found it a bit campy ‘theme watch’ after a while. Extremely overrated watch. Anyway, I went back to the original and couldn’t be happier.

Congrats!!!

All the Sea-Dweller family earns respect. From the early ones all the way up to the latest TT.

Each fills someone’s wishes and no need to dis their choice.

Looking good Rory. Congrats brother.

Not many wrists can pull that beast off but you definitely have.

[Avs Fan]

Congratulations!

Love the 126660. I must say I like the JC a bit more. The dial in certain angles look completely black, and when hit by light you some awesome tones of blue.

If I could I would have both!

[Lamontsanders]

Had a black and just scored a JC. Both are great in their own rights. Awesome watch that wears far better than anything that big should. Enjoy and congrats!

[rfs]

Congratulations

[Carguy87]

It’s a beautiful piece congrats!! That said for me I still love my JC and would pick it again if I could only have one; if funds were limitless I’d love to have this all black version too!

[Singapore Sling]

It's a very weighty piece. You really know it's there.

[KeithP]

Awesome. And I agree with you. If an AD laid both out in front of me, I'd take black.

[Chewbacca]

Congratulations

I got one when they first came out circa 2008. Wore it daily for three years then moved on to something else. The black dial is certainly the more classic look.

[CHRONOLEX]

Awesome will be curious how it fares with 32 movement issue

Looks good on you ! I have JC but i have held the black and it REALLY is a great watch ! Glad you love yours. Enjoy it !

[Doood]

I love the domed crystal. When I see this watch in the wild, it never strikes me as too large.

Congratulations. Looks great.

[Dirt]

Stunning watch
Is this the new 136660?
The view of the dial in this pic is so crisp and clear

[Driver8]

I had a standard 116660 for a while but the proportions with the case height and the relatively narrow bracelet on the older model just seemed “off” to me, so I sold it. The newer models have addressed the bracelet width issue which makes a hugely positive different IMO, and there’s no doubt it’s an engineering tour de force. Awesome piece if the height doesn’t bother you.

I also prefer the standard black to the JC. The JC’s dial is beautiful in person but it always just strikes me as a bit gimmicky on what is the hardest of hardcore divers.

Congrats on the pickup!

[travisb]

So good! Congratulations!

[alphadweller]

I prefer the all black to the JC, personally. That would also be my choice.

[1William]

Congratulations.

[rmlovett1]

Looks great in black or JC dial ! Congratulations!

[IR201]

I hear you man. Love the JC also. When I’m in the water I find myself preferring the JC. All other times I would lean black. Also depends on personal style of course. Actually think I’d like to have both also!

It’s true! Seiko can’t get all the credit for the wrist magic on bigger pieces
