Rolex Seadweller 16660 Matte Dial Box and Papers
The Inside Story
An classic Italian matte diver…
In the early 1980s Rolex began using more robust sapphire crystals on their watches. Known as ‘transitional’ models, early example were fitted with matte dials – a lot like the dials in the plastic glass watches that had preceded them.
This examples retains with its original matte dial (many were replaced at service with glossy dials) off-white hour plots that are a good match with the hand lume. The bezel inlay is in great condition. The case is strong with thick lugs and crown guards.

A proper full set! The solid link Oyster bracelet reference 93160 is in very good condition and has a clasp stamped ‘G’ and is fitted with solid endlinks reference 592.
