” This particular example of the Sea-Dweller Ref: 1665 came after production of the Double Red Sea-Dweller Ref: 1665, from 1967 to 1977. Keeping the same reference number, it was produced for a short period of just 5 years, with the current example having been manufactured in 1978. The most notable difference was the replacing of red text on the dial with white writing, hence the nickname ‘Great White’, bestowed upon it by collectors”.
– Paul Maudsley
