Yes!!! Got my SD43 (126600)

Planes, trains and automobiles all involved, but I finally made it in time and got my grail

the venerable ...

Sea Dweller 50th Anniversary 43mm (SD43)

I couldn’t be happier. Mk1 dial! Wow! What a rush!

Have to thank Tony (JustRolexes) for being so awesome! I have quite a few deals with him and he is always amazing. We always meet at the Starbucks in Del Mar just south of the race track. Such great memories of meeting him here, a very special location. Highly recommend him to all TRFers.

A little surprised, for the price, that this SD doesn’t come with toolkit like my wife’s 16600 M serial.

I will be removing one link tomorrow.

Wow! The ultimate dive watch IMO. There are so many outstanding attributes of this watch. It is truly wonderful to hear of the great relationship you have with your AD. IMO it is almost the most important part of acquiring a fine watch, maybe even just as important as the watch itself. This model is definitely on my short list, although by the time I get around to it, it will be the Mark II. Nevertheless, and experience I hope to have one day.
Congratulations!
Carl
