A Rolex Seadweller 1665 DRSD from 1972.
Sporting a lovely "fade to blue/grey" bezel. The mk 3 dial is in very nice condition with a mild lightening of the black lacquer.
It has a nice eggshell lume. The 20 min marker has an orange hue to it.
It is on an Oyster bracelet from 1989, included are all the original links.
The caseback has matching numbers to the case (important).
There is a inscription on the caseback referencing the original owner whom I purchased it from.
This could be laser filled if you so choose, for me it shows undeniable provenance. This is important with ANY vintage Rolex.
Afaik it was serviced in Perth about 6 years ago, I have no proof of this. The watch is running perfectly.
It has a silver date wheel and open 6's.

Asking $41K US delivered , by DHL plus Securus insurance. Prefer bank wire deposit .Paypal G&S +3%
Thank you OF for the space.

At this point why not go to auction? I think you’ll get in that range with it.

Thank you.
I have never considered that option.
Maybe the way to go, I am surprised that there have been no offers. Especially as the mk3 dial is excellent.
