I have BLNR and Explorer and added the SD4K in the summer. More unique than the Sub and I agree with all your points. Go for it.

The SD4K is great. Another option would be the IWC 353602 Aquatimer GST 2000. Build quality is incredible, 42mm but wears a bit smaller and you they are 1/4 the price of the SD4K. Probably not a popular suggestion on this forum

I’ve bought mine when it was first released (02 May 2014) when it wasn’t very popular. It’s a great watch and I never understood why people didn’t like it. I still love it today, and in fact am wearing it today.
I personally think it looks very different to a Sub, and I’m in the massive minority of people that don’t actually like the current Sub. It sits fine. The old 16600 was a great watch but I found that to be top heavy, I’ve never found that with the 116600. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That’s a very different watch. Decide which you want rather than focussing on the finances. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It’s a great watch. Certainly not the last sport watch with date and no cyclops as the current DSSD still does not have a cyclops. Can’t think of any reason to talk you out of it...awesome watch, and yes the dial is great!

Beyond this, I own the BLNR and 116600. I think they're a great duo and offer great complementarity to each other. You've listed many of the same reasons I chose to buy this watch, all of which I still find attractive to this day. If you're on the fence, I say go for it |
