Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date Sea-Dweller (Reference 126600)

This is a modern Rolex Sea-Dweller, likely the 50th Anniversary edition (Ref. 126600), distinguished by the single line of red 'SEA-DWELLER' text on the dial. The watch features a 43mm stainless steel Oyster case with a unidirectional rotatable bezel containing a black Cerachrom (ceramic) insert with a 60-minute scale. The black dial includes large Chromalight hour markers and hands that emit a blue glow in the dark. A key feature of this specific model iteration is the date aperture at 3 o'clock equipped with a Cyclops magnifying lens, a first for the Sea-Dweller line upon its 2017 release. The watch is mounted on a brushed stainless steel three-link Oyster bracelet with a folding Oysterlock safety clasp. Construction details include a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and a screw-down crown with the Triplock triple waterproofness system, designed for extreme depths (water-resistant to 1,220 meters / 4,000 feet). Regarding condition, the watch displays visible signs of wear consistent with regular use, including various superficial scratches and 'desk diving' marks across the Oyster bracelet links and the lugs. The sapphire crystal and ceramic bezel appear intact without significant chipping in the photograph. The craftsmanship reflects Rolex's high-grade industrial finishing, featuring sharp transitions between brushed and polished surfaces. The overall aesthetic is that of a professional tool watch from the contemporary era (post-2017).
