No lug holes but hay ho, cannot have it all. Major changes to my small collection. Sub C going, SD coming with probably a previous Pepsi as white gold is out for me.

it is mate... like the 16600 which i found really dull and sterile

i love the domed crystal, it's what makes the DSSD a fun wearer and takes it back to the days of T39 superdomes

why i came back to it...

Are the lugs of the new SD similar to the 16600 or they are just like the 116610? The case sims similar to the old 16600 with just ceramic..

I've been wanting a Sea Dweller forever! So glad they gave us a smaller size. My tiny wrists thanks the team at Rolex

The new Sea-Dweller is a nice addition to the line up. However at a projected $12k price, no thanks. Can anyone confirm the price in USD?

That is kind of my thought... What was the SDs MSRP in 2008 or whenever it was last made? Half of the price? Insane!

Where? I've got my name in it at Ross Simmon (Now Sidney Thomas in my neck of the woods) and at Lux Bond & Green. I was surprised I was the first call for both store?

Absolutely love the new case...I'm glad Rolex didn't do the supercase, and retained the classic looking lines. The bracelet also looks uniform, unlike the tapering DSSD.
