My SeaDweller 4000 has landed!

The SD4K arrived today and it is a beautiful lady!

For those that have followed, this was the result of a trade from a Daytona. I've had it on my wrist for a couple hrs and initial observations:

Feels more balanced and comfortable on the wrist than the Daytona. I do sense the extra mass of the watch, but it sits nicely on the wrist. The extra thickness keeps the crown off your skin...and not digging into my wrist skin like the other.
I love the 40mm size. I have worn vintage(6263,1610), so although larger than those, the 40mm is still a nice classic size.
The glidelock clasp is a must. I removed the dive extension and the fit is perfect. Easy to adjust for all day comfort.

Thanks to the group for help during the process.
