With Rolex original Guarantee dated 11 October 1977, product literature in German and fitted wooden green presentation box.
The present Double Red Sea-Dweller features the designation "Rolex Patent Oyster Gas Escapement Valve - Rolex" engraved around the case back as opposed to the inscription across the case back, making it a so-called "transitional" series. Earlier models had the inscription across the case back.
The dial belong to the "Mark IV" or "Mk 4" series of the Double Red Sea-Dweller, distinguished by the printing on its dial. The "double red" colour is of a light red shade. Upon close inspection the printing appears to be made up of a series of dots, rather than direct brush strokes or application. The two double red lines show different sizes: the second line, "SUBMARINER 2000", is smaller than the first line "SEA-DWELLER".
The white characters of the depth rating on the MK4 dial are both larger and of a different font than those found on earlier dials. In addition, the number 6 of the depth rating is closed. The crown is large, while the 5 tips and the large oval at the base of the Rolex crown are clearly defined.
The inside back of the case carries the full case number, thus differing from earlier models, which only displayed the last three digits of the case number.
