For its 50th anniversary, Rolex introduced a new and updated Sea Dweller. It features several design updates including an enlarged 43 mm steel case, which makes it the largest non-Deep-Sea model, an updated uni- directional bezel in black Cerahrom graduation coated via PVD (Physical Vapour Deposition) with a thin layer of platinum, an hour markers and hands filled with blue Chromalight lume material. Additionally, a magnifying glass "Cyclops" was added to the date window; the first time to appear on a Sea-Dweller model. In a stylistic nod to its history, the Sea-Dweller text has been applied in red, giving the watch a distinctive look. This example is in excellent unworn condition, with original factory case protection, and is accompanied by its original guarantee card as well as its full suite of accessories.
