If it really comes out of production, given the remaining quality and the rating of the other red lines, many will regret not having seized the opportunity to acquire it at this time...

Well guess it’s not the circumference that matters as much as the dimensions…

Indeed mine is even smaller at 7" soaking wet , but its flat shaped.

IMHO it looks just right

I am not convinced that it was the thickness of the watch that did that the watch didn’t sell well, it had more to do with the fact that it was more expensive than a Sub, and the average consumer couldn’t see the value add in the SD over the Sub when the looked so much a like.

But it is funny how divisive the SD size is. The proportions of the 116600 have always been perfect for me, while the SD43 is known as “The Fat Man Sub” in my local watch community.

Never seen any fat people in Europe. Everyone seems eat right-sized portions with wholesome ingredients. Plus, people walk.

USA? Just go to disneyland. Scooters galore.

You won't regret it.
It's a beautiful watch and the proportions are perfect for many people. A sub is a bit more comfortable due to being lighter but it sort of disappears on my wrist, the SD has much more prescence.

Enjoy it in good health.

Beast! So much wrist presence, it’s the big brother of the sub.

I'm a fat guy and I rode a scooter at Disney World last year and it was awesome. Best $50 I ever spent.

In fairness to me I spent 4 months preparing for the trip by working out and parking at the end of parking lots so I was walking more and lost 10 lbs ahead of the trip. The scooter came on day 4 when my feet were blistered up. It wasn't because I was winded, it was because I was in pain.

Also, I live in the south (southern cooking is the BEST!) and thought I was used to humidity but Florida is something else entirely in that regard.
