I know I am not the only one waiting for one, am I right? We are all still dreaming but...Andrew has a 2006 edition with a 1:1 case replica. Not an expert on Rollies but it may be a step in the right direction? Cheers Alex Edited July 18, 2006 by Alextor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can´t find it on his website. I immediately got to have one with the correct case... Thanks. Greetings DJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Alex still the wrong case and bezel thickness. Some of the reps have a domed case back to make the watch thicker but the gen also has a thicker case per se. say hello to my little friend.....

melvin.x Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 Andrews 2005 version seems not to have the right case. Thickness is stated 12mm. Also there is no picture of the he valve. To me it looks like a modded sub case with a slightly bigger caseback. But the most obvious reason for this watch not being a 1:1 case copy is that nobody of the rolex watch nuts has verified it yet...

yodaddynukka Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 josh says his is 1:1 14.5mm thick, but compared to chrono's pic you can tell it is not the same, too bad... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
www_watch Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 josh says his is 1:1 14.5mm thick, but compared to chrono's pic you can tell it is not the same, too bad... It´s simple like that: Don´t look for it, it doesn´t exist! Maybe one day it will show up. But I don´t know what they will call it then? The term "1:1 case" or "thick case exactly like original" has already been used too often. Or maybe that´s why they don´t change it. They don´t want to admit that they´ve been lying to us about the wrong SD case all that time...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yodaddynukka Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 yeah maybe its a 1:1 mold of a 16610... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By-Tor Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 How come I have a feeling that I read this same thread year ago? There was no decent modern SeaDweller replica year ago... and there isn't now. So don't stress about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubiquitous Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 Nevermind the fact that the genuine 16600 has a crystal that measures almost 1mm smaller than a 16610's, and is significantly thicker as well. The immediate difference is not so apparent at first glance, but if you've seen and handled enough of both, it becomes quite apparent that the Sea-Dweller's dial looks a bit more crowded, and that the bezel insert looks a little wider.
