1665, 'Great White' Sea-Dweller, Steel extras 1 is inspired by traditionA 'Rail Dial' ref. 1665 'Great White' Sea Dweller. The Great White 1665 took over in 1977, with just the first two years in Rail Dial configuration. These dials marked the first instance of 'Sea Dweller' appearing solo on the dial, axing the Submariner 2000 designation of its COMEX bred predecessor, the Double Red. It is a massively capable dive watch built during an era when Rolex still treated its sport references as tools first, status symbols last.
