12.5mm thickness vs 15mm (20% thicker) to consider also then deepsea which is 19mm thick is a good 52% thicker still than the 114060!

I ended up selling my Sub date after trying on a DSSD.
The Deepsea ended up being my daily wear watch.
No regrets at all. Good luck with with your choice!

I actually did. They are two very similar looking watches, with the SD being a bit more proportionate, and unique. Since it wore just about as comfortable, and also having a Hulk, I parted with the 114060.

Had both including a DSSD. I prefer both the Sub and DSSD over the SD50.

Yes, around 8'' on a good day and around 9'' on a bad day.

You said you have large wrists....moving to the Deepsea from the Sub was probably a good move for you.

Congrats the DSSD D-Blue is stunning. Though I suspect you would also enjoy wearing the SD43.

Another vote for the SD43. Have a look at side by side photos to see the difference. Also, once you try it on, you'll see how much more presence teh SD43 has. Wrist size is a factor to consider as well, obviously.
