TeeJay Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 That's the Patent Pending caseback... Good eye. What on the dial is different? Submariner 2000, rather than just Submariner? I have to admit, I don't know too much about Seadwellers
Nanuq Posted March 31, 2010 Author Report Posted March 31, 2010 BINGO! The "Mark 0" Sea Dweller had the Patent Pending caseback, some very early models had a thinner case than what we see today, some had no HEV, and a very few examples made it into the public without the SUBMARINER 2000 text. Just like the one pictured.

Just like the one pictured. This really is a case of the broken clock being right twice a day... I thought you were refering to the SD on the eBay link, not the one on the iPhone app I saw that just had Submariner, rather than Submariner 2000, as on the one on eBay, so wondered if it (the one on the bay) having the 2000 was a 'special feature' but I have to admit, I've never really paid that close attention to the SD dials to realize that, I just figured they said Seadweller Submariner
