Sub? not current generation. If the "new" Sub whenever that comes out has slimmer lugs then i will consider it. For now, the SD4K kicks butt for my diver

thanks!

"popular" or not, these are watches I like and wear.

To be hones the SD4K was NOT popular when I purchased it. It was a dog because everyone wanted either a cheaper Sub or larger Deepsea. But i loved the SD4K. It only become popular because it was discontinued

Yes...love them all. And if I could only have 3, I'd go with the BLRO, Black Dial Daytona, and SD4K. That is the perfect SS trio for me.

- GMT Master II - 116710 BLNR (Batman)
- Sea-Dweller 116600 SD4K

After acquiring the 126710 BLRO (Pepsi) at Christmas, I feel I might be done with Rolex. At this point, I think I am just going to sit back, chill, and enjoy my timepieces.

Famous last words right?

You don't have a collection until you have the SD43!

As so many have said, just the hardest to get pieces. Hard to believe the AD treats you so nicely where you have no PM. I would get a strap watch to round out that collection. Not from Rolex though. Perhaps a Lange or Patek manual wind chrono would fit nicely in white gold.
