One last incoming this year!!!




A tiny Christmas miracle happened today. AD called and the wife said Merry Christmas!!! I love the size and heft of it. Not to mention the red lettering is very cool too! I realize it’s not as popular as the submariner. I feel like this one is under the radar just a bit.

The SD43 is a great watch, and in my opinion the best diver Rolex makes. Beefier than the sub while retaining the classic look.

Congrats, I think it’s lack of popularity it based on the size of it. If my wrist was bigger I would get one, it’s a cool piece!

Nice, congrats! I love mine and wasn't sure until I tried it on. Now my subs don't see as much wrist time. It's just perfect.
