only a 1655 can lure me to part with my SD. That is if I have the money to top up. ;)

TimeOnHand · 6 December 2011, 12:48 AM

I had one... then got rid of it... and now I miss it and want it back!

Woody · 6 December 2011, 04:07 AM

Traded mine for a GMTII-C - no regrets

EXACTLY! I don't want to fall into that category. Ive considered trading my SD towards a DSSD, but I think I might regret it if I trade it off. Most of the people I talk to will either never let it go, or regret letting it go....

I like my men as I like my watch - tough and good looking!
Sea Dwellers -- we ladies own them too and no trades will do.

Jannal · 24 December 2011, 07:07 PM

I traded my SD for a Sub C.

Atomant · 24 December 2011, 07:12 PM

Nothing, it's staying on my wrist.

Ed Rooney · 24 December 2011, 07:56 PM

I wouldn't trade for a Yachty, 14060m or Sub. A nice Coke GMT might be a better fit for my lifestyle, however.

Mike1066 · 24 December 2011, 08:59 PM

This whole post is blasphemous. How can you even put the words "trade" and "Sea-Dweller" in the same sentence!?!? I'd never let my Sea-Dweller go for any other watch. Period. It's THE BEST!

A woman that rocks a Sea-Dweller?! AMAZING!

NEVER!

Keep It....

George Ab · 26 December 2011, 05:50 PM

I have sold mine a couple times.... followed by regret and finding another. It is a keeper although it is a tight contest with the LV as the one Rolex diver to have in my collection.

RolexCat · 27 December 2011, 06:42 AM

Yup i bought the last new SD 3 years ago my AD had. I have been there a few time looking. They have the Sub, and new EXPII. They also have a new Daytona, white face. They said they would be more then happy to take the SD in on trade, but i couldnt bring myself to do. I really like the Daytona, and EXPII, but the SD was the watch i lusted for! So im keeping it! Ron

jmsrolls · 27 December 2011, 06:55 AM

The SD was always my grail Rolex and I thought that one I got my hands on one, I would never let it go.

But alas, after a year of battling it out for wrist time, the SD lost out to my Planet Ocean Liquidmetal LE. I just could not justify two black divers in the collection.

Yes, I miss it. Maybe someday I'll have another.

Honestly, while I've flirted with flipping my 16600 for other Rolex sports models over the years, including the GMT IIc, DSSD, and new Exp II, I doubt I ever will. I really think that for my needs, it's one of the greatest Rolex references ever. There's is just so much I like about it: it's overbuilt, but still fairly svelte and completely wearable like few other 1000+meter-rated divers are, and it has the ability to completely fly under the radar (almost always a good thing). It has no cyclops (a plus in my book), and I can't get enough of the raised, thick sapphire crystal. Plus it's got a caseback engraving (I find it a little off-putting that the majority of Rolex sports models don't). It doesn't help that my 8-year-old son has already claimed it for himself when he's of age, so I don't think I could flip it even if I wanted to.

cgjane · 27 December 2011, 07:42 AM

I traded a DJ + 14060 for my SD, and I have no regrets.

I had mine engraved with my son's name when he was born - he'll be getting it on his 18th birthday, so that watch is staying. I have bought and sold several Panerais since then, but can't seem to part with the SD.
