DRSD M K II and 1665 Rail are for a long time in my hunting list.

Flu & Tool Watches
Because of boredom, due the flu, I took some pictures of my two beloved SD, and I played a bit with a photo editor.
Obviously not a great result for the lack of experience and limited technical resources, but whatever... I am pleased to share them with you.
1665 5.7xx.xxx White MK2, Rail Dial (Stern) + 16600 W9xx.xxx
You can easily see all the differences between this two references: the date wheel, markers, hands, matt/gloss dial, plexi/sapphire glass, bezel insert and bracelet.
Perhaps the only thing they have in common is Tritium
Swiss - T < 25 on ref. 16600
T Swiss T < 25 on ref. 1665
Let's take a look to the Helium Escape Valve...
Rolex Patent Escape Valve on ref. 1665, Original Gas Escape Valve on ref. 16600
Battle scarred crowns...
Cal. 1575 (19.800bph) for 1665
Cal. 3135 (28.800bph) fro 16600
funny editing
thanks for watching guys, take care.

Bravo cugino !
As I have already told you, your exemplary is really beautiful : hands, dial and case are perfect!, the rarest White SD (except the very rare MKO called Big white)
Take care of it, soon, I hope you will go swimming with it in the Gulf of Ajaccio...

Sorry about the flu
Get better soon ...
The pictures are a pleasure to enjoy and I am sure the will help to make you feel better soon.
Both watch share a lot of aspects nd even with the difference in age they are very compatible.
Plexi is sexy but sapphire is safety.
