2 weeks of SDDS and more remarks then years of 116520

Hi Guys ,
I just wanted to add after my little run in with the "ignoramus" Rolex wearing clogs in France yesterday at lunch. That so far I have had more people making remarks about my SDDS in two weeks then the years I have been wearing first a 16520 (more rare at the time then) and the 116520 I'm wearing now .
But unfortunately I have not really had any nice things said about it .
My best friend wanted to know if I was planning to keep gold fish in it , and when I explained to another friend what the watch is capable to do ( 3900 M and over , blabla ) he asked if the coucou ( bird ) that should come out every hours could withstand the water pressure too.
My own wife made the remark that I should only wear the watch with sporty shirts / sweatshirts as she has noticed that the watch " hooks " on my shirts I wear to the office .
Last week I walked in at my local AD , we get along pretty well or should I say got as I made the mistake to show him the SDDS that I didn't buy with him as he didn't have one available and even if he had ,he couldn't do me the nearly 20% less that it cost me 250 km down the road in Spain . So his reaction was " nice " and went into the back to make a very long phone call .
So far nobody around me has said " great watch " well at least I got some nice remarks from you guys when I posted some pictures the day I got it.
By the way I'm still peeling of plastic ... how much is on there ????
I LOVE THE WATCH MORE BY THE DAY !!!!!
