Helium Valve Question

Hey tech guys.

I've been searching and can't find a conclusive answer, because I don't have the modern parts list for Rolex cases.

My question is: the Helium release valve in the 116600 (pervious model from 2014, just replaced by the new red one) sea dweller. Is it the same part as the 16600 model (discontinued in 2008)?

They appear the same, but I need to be certain. 24-V53 is the 16600 part.

Thanks for any assistance you can share!

24-V53-1 is for 116600 and 16600
24-V53-2 is for 126600

I see no suffix listed so I assume it would be a “dash one” version.

The 126600 is titanium I believe?

Either way thank you very much. This is a huge help.

Your assumption is correct .

Both valves are titanium
