I could greatly use the forum members help...

I am looking at a 1665 Double Red Sea Dweller MK IV with 4.0 serial in original condition. The dial is in excellent condition and the case is unpolished. The bracelet is a 93150/585. The box and papers are not available.

What is the range you would pay for a watch like described above?

Pictures are necessary to give a proper valuation.

Nice looking piece!

ljr33 · 13 May 2015, 11:05 AM

Very nice.

RolexJNJ · 13 May 2015, 11:10 AM

Wow, really nice! Good luck!!

sea-dweller · 13 May 2015, 11:27 AM

That is a beauty!

descartes · 13 May 2015, 11:30 AM

Looks like MKIV Dial. I think serial number is in range for those, but I'd wait for the experts to be sure it's not a replacement case (4M range) and for comments on any other issues.

If it's correct, it's a great looking example.

Good luck!

Looks NOS! How cool for a decades old watch!

AS1 · 13 May 2015, 11:33 AM

Looks pretty damn good. Pristine DRSDs fetch $25K range I believe.

pdoukas · 13 May 2015, 12:37 PM

One arm and half a leg......option on the kidney

Very nice looking if legit. I'm sorry I cannot provide a value but maybe in the 25k range as others have said

Cash or cash and trade?

willang · 13 May 2015, 01:12 PM

Looks great and priced right!

john11f · 13 May 2015, 10:22 PM

If you've done your research and there aren't any red flags, the watch is around the level what the others are saying. That's what I paid for mine. Here's a pic for comparison.

MKIV 78' 5.2Xm serial. bought last year. Hope this helps!

The case looks like new, as in are you sure it is not a replacement case?

eparisini · 14 May 2015, 06:27 PM

Would need the Whole ser# as Service cases are around 4Mln

Agree. Can you provide this info?

CrookedOak · 15 May 2015, 04:09 AM

Working on it - I was told it is not a service case.

CrookedOak · 15 May 2015, 05:10 AM

I plugged in the serial to the "Date Your Rolex" app and it came back as 1974

Frosty · 15 May 2015, 05:17 AM

WOW!

CrookedOak · 15 May 2015, 07:37 AM

Pulled the trigger - arriving tomorrow!

Wing Zero · 15 May 2015, 08:24 AM

The watch looks amazing. The only nit picky thing (Personal pet peeve) is the crown guards being a bit over polished. Other than that, perfect
