I got that warm loving feeling over my SD

[Baptistman]

Why doe's a watch have so much affect on me or you for that matter. I had a wonderful meal today at a beautiful location with my family. (http://members.aol.com/huntsmanht/) anyway, I glanced several times at my wrist and had a really warm feeling come over me. The watch seems to be polished in just the right places, coz the lights made it gleam like a christmas tree bauble. When I went to the WC, the spot lights over the Wash basins are halogen and I have been caught many a time looking at my watch as the light catches it in the mirrors. (By the way i will deny all this if it come's to trial)

Its seems daft and if i said this to any of my family, I think I would be commited, but it doe's make me feel special.

Another point someone who we started to converse with asked me about my watch, then started to say "thats really nice, Rolex, can I ask about how much these days 5 to 7k (pounds)

He seemed genuinely surprised when I gave him the RRP. He wasen't a WIS in particular just had heard of the brand etc. People have some interesting perceptions about our brand.

I know that feeling well Jon and yes I too would be commited if I mentioned it to another family member

Go on, you know it's gonna happen.

[marshallr47]

They look great don't they? I always love the look of my watches in well lite areas. Enjoy your watch for many years to come.

[frostie]

I hope to get the exact feeling when i will receive the GMT II C. Looking forward for that day

[jhowton]

And reading this post made me glance down at my wrist, and yes, a smile came to my face. You are not alone, there is something special about a SD.

[nsolga]

There's something special about that meaty SD! I must say though, my girlfriend has been laughing at me as each time I glance down to my new SS Sub Date w/ CRB - I make a little growl / hmmmf noise.

I'm thinking of getting help - Just kidding...

Enjoy that SD my friend!

Not for nothing, but you might want to rethink the title of your thread next time. All I could think about was...well, let's just say you were "winding it".

[Lol-x]

Sometimes, I think I look at my watches much more often just to appreciate they beauty or visual attributes than to actually tell the time and yes (I will deny that if anyone asks)

I agree here as well. The SD is to me the pinnacle of Rolex sport watches and it took me a long time to work up to owning one. I will never swap it as I have really come to feel a bond with it. It is 'eye catching' and has a uniqueness of it's own:

The sea dweller defines uniqueness in it's own way.

One word "STUNNING"

[Texsubmariner]

Man, you guys are making me wanting to get the SD now! I got to stop looking at these pics!

Go on, go get the toughest weapon Rolex make.

[Tombstone]

I agree it is the toughest Rolex made! Bo my good friend off with you to the ADs. Buy a SD ASAP and never flip it again. It calls to you Bo take me home Bo I am for you.

Man I want the Red SD to come back SOOOOOO badly! I wish Rolex would re-issue this watch at the B. Show in April 2008.
Could you see a Red SD with a Maxi dial? It would make the GMT IIC and Milgauss sales look like nothing. I have 3 friends along with me who would camp out at the ADs front door to be one of the first to place an order. What do all of you think about a re-issue? Is it just me or would you guys/gals run to buy one as well?

[Baptistman]

Maybe as an anniversary model, strictly limited. Not like the LV.

[Rob_b]

I know that feeling I would be embarased to know how much time I've spent admiring the SD on my wrist.

[GoldenBear]

My wife catches me looking at my Rolex so often she facetiously asks "You got a date?"...And as far as "that warm feeling you got on your watch"...Not gonna touch that line...

I'm torn ladies and gentlemen,

I'm eager to add a SD to my modest collection, but I've fallen in love with some of the features of the new GMT llc. Is there any feeling out there as to when the parachron blue spring, new clasp and bracelet might appear on the SD?

Blue spring yep a good addition, but leave everything else well alone. It all works and has been field tested over 40 years. Change the style and charateristics of the watch, it then loses some of its charm, romance and appeal, I would hate the SD to have the Ceramic bezel. I like the new GMT, but not at the expense of the older model. The pepsi GMT is iconic, by all means bring out the new style GMT as a separate model. Certain models should be left alone to any major remodelling. Just my opinion. Take the Sub for example, why on earth does it need any changes. It sells by the shed load and will continue to. Again its an icon.
