My Thoughts
If you’re looking for something unique without straying too far from the beaten path, this thing has character in spades!
At 2009 you’re right at the very end of the five-digit production run, so you get all the perks of a late 16600 while still having that old-school aluminium bezel, 40mm case and no cyclops.
And the condition on this one is impressive. The case is beautifully thick, sharp and even, and judging by the lines and brushing I’d lean towards it being unpolished.
But the bezel… man, that ghosted bezel is the cherry on top!
It’s faded into this incredible silver/grey and gives the whole watch bucket-loads more character. Add the full inclusions, right down to the white tag and bezel protector, and this is a seriously cool late Sea-Dweller.
One disclosure - there is a superficial mark on the crystal at 3 o’clock. My zoomed-in high-resolution photos absolutely exaggerate it compared with how it looks on the wrist, but it’s there and ultimately a cheap fix.
$13,999. I absolutely love this thing!
