New watch day! (Sea-Dweller)

Got my first Rolex earlier this year (GMT II) and knew once it arrived, it would only be a matter of time before another arrived. Today it arrived. :)

I wanted something similar but with a black bezel. I felt a sub would be just too similar to the GMT, whereas the SD lacks the cyclops and overall has a different enough look to provide a contrast, but not too different in style and still the older look (which I love). I also love diving, though not sure I'll dive with it!

I feel very blessed and proud to be able to wear these watches.
