I must have been at this too long. Every year folks get so upset over the new releases. I've been there too. Then a few months later those models that so many of us complained about become hot sellers.

It's normal. There will be pages upon pages written of the bitter disappointments of Basel. Then the new models will start popping up and there will be pages and pages of incomings and congratulations.

And then as that settles down, the rumors and speculation will begin for next year's Basel. All part of the cycle.

EDIT: Second time today that's happened to me...I swear I wasn't copying you, JP!

I have personally started a thread last night asking someone who's actually seen the new SDC43 in person at Basel to confirm that it does truly in fact have a glossy dial...and so far have not had anyone whom has seen it confirm!
The videos on ablogtowatch show it is both matte and gloss depending on light and angle.
