Rolex Sea-Dweller “Great White” 1665 – For Sale

The Rolex Sea-Dweller Ref. 1665 “Great White” is one of the most iconic vintage Rolex dive watches, produced from the late 1970s through to the early 1980s and highly regarded among collectors.

Nicknamed the “Great White”, this version is defined by its clean all-white dial text, replacing the earlier “Double Red” models and marking an important evolution in the Sea-Dweller line.
