Rolex - Sea-Dweller two-tone (Ref. 126603)

It's funny, but despite not forgiving Rolex for discontinuing the Sea-Dweller 4000 after only three years of production, and despite not normally liking two-tone watches - this one seems to work for me.

Rolex - Sea-Dweller (Ref. 126600)

When the Sea-Dweller 4000 was released in 2014 I was a very appreciative audience. It had the classic Rolex dive watch styling of the Submariner except with complete minute markers around the bezel, was smaller than the Deep-Sea, and it had the date but without the magnifying Cyclops which I find visually distracting. So I can't say I'm overjoyed that it is already being replaced with this version before I got around to affording one for myself. But I'm sure this will have buyers queued up already.
