I heard that the red Sd43 will be a limited run. I hear Rolex will continue to produce it but with white text. Could this be true?

I sincerely hope so, but I doubt it. No one knows but Rolex, and they ain't saying!!!

Cheers,

Rolex knows the red text is every WIS' kryptonite and will sell like wild fire. I highly doubt it's discontinued soon. They're more interested in their bottom line than ours.

JP Chestnut · 13 July 2017, 02:22 AM

No. The black insert GMT has a green hand and text since it's the "anniversary" model. It still has that text 10 years later.

This hope for a limited run is based solely on people's desire - there's zero grounding in reality.

texex91 · 13 July 2017, 02:25 AM

Yes...very limited

fishingbear · 13 July 2017, 02:48 AM

Rolex will decide based on what will drive the most sales. So discontinuing the red text on the 50th anniversary Sea Dweller is highly unlikely, in the least for the next several years.

GB-man · 13 July 2017, 03:24 AM

You heard nonsense from the uninformed

beshannon · 13 July 2017, 03:25 AM

Yes.

It will be limited to the number Rolex chooses to make.

you "heard" this from who.....?

mahefa · 14 July 2017, 09:12 AM

No. SD43 is very nice watch.

HogwldFLTR · 14 July 2017, 09:14 AM

Limited by demand like the SD4K. What was that, a three year run?

Pmt2 · 14 July 2017, 11:27 AM

Time will tell..honestly I'm just happy I got one! It's really phenomenal

brandrea · 14 July 2017, 11:54 AM

Don't know, don't care.

Smarties · 14 July 2017, 12:00 PM

No

jschmidtdmd · 14 July 2017, 12:01 PM

I doubt it, but I am looking forward to putting on on my wrist sometime soon

Ruud Van Driver · 14 July 2017, 02:11 PM

Conjecture, nothing more. It's a nice looking piece but it ain't on D-Blue.

Maybe.

When Rolex released an updated version without cyclops and drop the red lettering.

Like most things about Rolex on the net you find today 99% is complete and utter boswellocks.The real number of limited production watches that Rolex has produced over the past 100 years you could count on one hand.Rolex watches today are massed produced much like many other brand today.

rudestew · 14 July 2017, 05:45 PM

Even if there was a shred of truth if the red was replaced with white it would be overbearing , look at the pelagos and the LHD model , the red tones it down -so a please no from me

oldman2005 · 14 July 2017, 07:09 PM

it will be limited once I get one :)

HL65 · 14 July 2017, 07:18 PM

No not at all. It was also not hard to get at least for me. Be patient and you will get yours if you want one!
