Comex Sea Dweller ref 16600
Greetings,
Has anyone come across a Comex Sea Dweller with only “comex” on the case back, but not on the dial? Thanks

George

Greetings,
Does that mean that a comex watch always has its logo on the dial as well as on the case back?

For that series I believe so.This was the last series produced and it has a WG glossy dial and they did say COMEX.Having said that dials do grow wings sometimes.With the serial number you can verify if it a comex watch.

Couldn't someone also have just stuck a Comex caseback on a regular SD?
