Dweller of the Deep

They should call this watch a Crablex! It looks like a robotic crab in this position.

Love the picture, I love the SD here is a shot of my SD and LV on a copy of watchtime. My AD put a copy aside for me, there is an awesome SD article on page 58 where there is a comparative test between the Rolex SD and the IWC Aquatimer.

Dear Richard,

I would reaaallyy appreciate it, if you could scan the pages where the report was.

Some time ago, I was keen on getting the IWC Aquatimer.

Let's see if the Rolex SD can "beat" the AT IWC.

Thanks a million in advance.

All this SD talk got me thinking. I went and tried one on last weekend.

Wears different than the sub. But for me will be keeping my sub.

I like your slogan! How about this one! When was the last time you seen a handgun jump up! load itself! run down the street and shoot someone! run back jump in it's owners hand! and plead insanity!

Santavclaus 2100 Ofelas beat me to the punch he has posted the article.

Ofelas, Great work yes that is the same article, most of the articles in the issue are reprints from other issues. I love the photos.

Mark I love the SD if I have any input, go for it you will not be sorry.

nko51...thanks for the solidarity...LOL...though "solidarity" has nasty, perverted socialist connotations...though, you are not that "type" bro...
santaclaus2100 - the link I posted was just a repeat of another poster's link...I don't remember who, otherwise i would give him/her full credit...
