wait a sec... you mean you don't wear any of your watches?

what are you hoping for? That they will go up huge in value ?

VERy very nice, congratulations!
The RED bold lettering makes it look different.
All the subs are special in their own right, whether it be DSSD or Blue DSSD or Sub...
so enjoy!
Its how you wear them that counts

Watching that video I SWEAR the glidelock clasp is shorter than the one on the Sub / DSSD and SD4k. Am I seeing things?

Nothing against you OP as you are free to do what you please with your watches and hard earned cash.

It's however hilariously ironic that the first SD43 delivered in the world, a watch known for being arguably the most utilitarian in the diver line, went to a man who chooses to keep them in the box and doesn't wear them
