Saturation divers who had previously been issued with Rolex Submariners found that during decompression, the pressure inside the watch would force its way out through the weakest point which usually resulted in the loss of the plexiglass. In response to this, Rolex developed the Sea-Dweller. With a helium escape valve on the side, a greater depth rating of 610 meters and the removal of the cyclops from the crystal, the Sea-Dweller is a true tool watch and has been favoured by professional divers ever since its introduction.The reference 16600 was released in 1988 and was produced for 20 years before being discontinued in 2008.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Second item: a rare and complete example of a local Tyrolean pack celebrating the 1809 rebellion and Tyrolean culture. The only related record we have found is a mention by Sylvia Mann (All Cards on the Table, p.93) of a pack she calls 'the Tyrol's struggle for independence'. Mann gives no further details, but it seems possible at least that this may be the same design as the present pack.

Michael Dummett (The Game of Tarot, p.466) and the IPCS note that these Tyrol tarot packs are usually found as a reduced 66 card deck (see also Mann, All Cards on the Table #223 and Blass, Talon, Sonderheft 7 "Welli & Co", pp.73-79). It is more unusual to find the complete deck of 78 cards as here, and in this particular example it is interesting to observe that the cards frequently removed from these packs (ace-3 black & 8-10 red) are noticably cleaner, having presumably been less used.
