It’s the dial proportions that bother me and not the overall size. The dial is way way out of balance. I know why it has to be that way but I would believe the dial diameter might be even smaller than the Sub41. Like 14” wheels on a full size pickup.

Wow.

Can’t get by the fact that it’s stupidly big… did it feel heavy, or still alright cos of the titanium?

I appreciate the technology and the titanium metal but too large for me.

I always knew my SD43 was too small

It’s certainly „outstanding“.

Ti SD = clown watch.

Why would anybody buy this over a RO (same price) is beyond me.

Robf52 · 15 November 2022, 05:38 AM

SD43 for me.

Felt every bit of the way. The titanium bracelet itself was light but the watch itself in its entirety was fairly heavy.

Rolex owns the ocean and needed a prop for each AD. Omega owns outer space and already had this:

Yep…but the height. It’s just shy of an inch tall. The other dimensions, okay…but the height is just ridiculous.

I considered to make it my new daily driver, but 26k and no date ? How am I supposed to know what's the date when I'm hunting giant squid at a depth of 500 trillion miles under water? Imagine a fish asking me, sir do you know the date? And I'll be like no sorry I have a 26k watch but I can't tell u the date. :D ( I'm cracking myself up laughing as I'm writing this)

So, if there's no date I'm not buying at 26k... if rolex lowers it to 23.5k I may reconsider :p

But on a serious note, this watch is a collectible IMHO, not to be worn but would be a nice addition to a collection if you can spare the money.
