What an awesome addition.. I am huge fan of the fully graduated bezel and the size of the 116600... I definitely see myself adding one in the future.

Very nice specimen! To me personally the 16600 has always been THE Rolex to have and I finally got one last year (a 2006 Z serial which happens to be my son’s birth year). If I can only have one Rolex that’s the one.

I'm very happy with this 16600. Quote:
Would be nice to see a photo of your 2006 SD. Does anybody know how many of A-series 16600's (with 'SWISS' only dials) were approximately produced? |

AWESOME specimen, Saxo, congrats to you! Without a time machine that's about as good as you could do :)

Very belated congratulations… I don’t know how I missed it
This reference was my very first Rolex, and the one that started it all for me. |

I'm guessing SD Watches, but could be wrong. Awesome selection of NOS Sea Dwellers. Have one on my own wrist, in fact

I pocked up a 16600 a few years ago. Agree with your assessment. Excellent engineering and aesthetics. Such a great watch at a reasonable price compared to Subs from that same era.

Great catch. I always find it interesting that this was the most technically advanced and expensive professional piece Rolex made at the time and now it’s a bargain.

I agree, a M-Series 16600 NOS with a complete set is a difficult to find bargain. |
