I have an interest in the death or otherwise of the Seadweller and have been compiling my own list. Whilst I am no expert I am regularly in touch with more than 100 UK Rolex AD's and several hundred more throughout Europe

As far as the UK is concerned the last SD's have a V4 serial number and were produced almost 6 months ago.

I have yet to find any AD who will admit to receiving one from Rolex in the past 4 - 6 months.

So although some are still available at the UK list price of £3980(mostly plus a premium to the selling AD), they are now almost 6 months old and possibly older and most likely bought by the AD's at the previous price and now being sold at an inflated price.

So on balance it looks like the SD is dead, production having stopped some time ago, just like the Submariner LV.
