Benefits of a SS Watch >>>

Well , I must say that I am pleased with the
SD4K wearability...

For one , it’s keeping excellent time ...
Two, it’s pretty comfy with the divers extension removed...
Three, I LOVE THAT I DON’T HAVE TO WIPE OFF THE
FINGERPRINTS EVERY DAY CAUSE YOU CAN’T SEE THEM!!!
I still love my Bluesy but everyday or every other day
you can see the fingerprints !!!!
Where it made contact with skin or something that cause the Gold pcl’s
on the bracelet or The glidelock clasp to be dirty and
lose its luster and I’m OCD!!!

Ok rant over ...

How long has it been since it took a nice soapy bath ???

Nice watch! TBH, I actually prefer the shine. But, I can understand the draw to the “Tool” look.

I’m getting used to it ... I like the clean look , just
wish my eyes were younger...

Not that I’m old or anything but I do wear glasses ...

Does the SD43 have the same Glidelock as the DSSD?

Yes it does... Kind of wish it had the Sea-Dweller Deep sea clasp

I still regret not picking one up before they discontinued it. Could be had in excellent condition for $7k on the used market!

I think the SD4K is a perfect modern iteration of the reference. Looks great on you also.
