New watch!
Picked up a SD4k today - very happy! If some of you may recall, i have tiny 5.75" wrists and was asking about wearability of various models. I am also on the waiting for the DaytonaC white dial however i wouldnt be surprised if it were a 6-12 month wait at this point (on the list at 3 ADs).

Really happy with the SD as it is so much more wearable than the Sub C or GMT 2 on smaller wrists

Congrats on the sd4k, but why put yourself on the list at 3 AD's knowing your not going to buy from 2 of them?

It's obvious no? Triple your chances of getting it sooner. Don't feel bad for the ADs he doesn't buy it from. It's not like they'll be stuck with some undesirable model.

Congrats OP! The Sd4000 looks great.

Optimum chance of getting it sooner, I've done the same for a BLNR here, I will obviously phone the other 2 AD's to inform them and remove me from the list however

Because none of them will say how long the list is at each place and I suspect 2 of them will hike prices (currently US$16-18k). The last place I put my name on the list at is a boutique so will charge MSRP - I've stuck with that

Nice choice! Looks great even on smaller wrists with those shapely lugs. Enjoy it in good health.
