Cool story. Enjoy your first and probably not your last Rolex. Stick with that SA.

Awesome story. Congratulations.

I also got an SD43 this year on a very quick turnaround.

Everyone is all over the Submariner, but the SD43 fits me better an I love it.

However at 3K more than the sub I can understand why it is not as fast of a seller.

Regardless, enjoy yours like I enjoy mine. Well done.

Big congrats, the SD43 is one hell of a stainless tool watch, and one of my favorites. Talk about luck and timing…

Wow! This is so refreshing and maybe a sign of hope for all of us. What an amazing story to add to your watch and eventually tell your children about how lucky you were to get that Rolex during these times.

Enjoy!

Congrats OP, I like the SD much more than the Subs. In February of 2020 right before Covid hit I walked into that store. At that time there were still some watches in the case but no visible SS Pro models. The SA asked me if there was anything in particular I was looking for, I mentioned the SD43 and she said sorry none of those right now.
I think you just hit it off right and got the watch.

Congrats on the SD43! I'm also on the list at the same AD, but had just picked up a TT SD43 2 weeks back. Very underrated watch, imo.
