Rolex Reference 1665 · Early Production
DRSD
Mark 0 Dial
Overview
The Mark 0 Dial
An early dial of the Double Red Sea-Dweller with the word “2000” missing from the second red line. Both fonts appear approximately the same size. This dial was produced in very limited numbers.
Red Lines
Two red lines — but the second line reads “Submariner” only, without “2000”
Font
Both red lines in approximately the same font size
Production
Very limited numbers — an early transitional dial between the Mark 00 and full Double Red production
Rarity
Extremely scarce — seldom seen in the collector market
The Mark 0 sits between the prototype Single Red (Mark 00) and the first full Double Red production dials. The absence of “2000” on the lower line makes it immediately identifiable — and exceptionally rare.
