Sea Dweller 16660 Bezel Insert and Dial needed


Genrep

Recommended Posts

You can use an insert from wholesaleoutlet or watchbandman (seller names on ebay - just search for "seadweller bezel" and you'll find their shops) and replace the pearl with a watchmaterial pearl. For the dial you can try ND Trading. They offer matte 16660 re-dials for 500 USD.

BTW a 16660 had Tritium lume which does not glow anymore. The tritium lume only lasts about 10 years. It would be far more correct to have a pearl that does not glow unless you get a gen rolex service dial with Superluminova (marked as "SWISS", the Tritium dial is marked as "SWISS- T<25") and a matching 16600 insert with Superluminova pearl.

I agree with Chefcook on everything.

The dial for a 16660 and a 16600 will be the same- the later ones with the white gold surrounds around the markers- dial feet are in the same place for a 3035 (16660) and 3135 (16600) movement. Of course, Rolex used the Tritium dials until around 2000. You might be able to find a Sea-Dweller dial on the bay, but I'd figure $200-500 for one- I can't recall seeing one recently.
