Rolex - New SD43...

New SD43...

... while waiting mine to arrive in his new home on IG it seems some of them pop up here and there
The impression I got from the pics I post below is that the 43mm do not created a "monster" when th SD is near the Hulk (maybe it is because of the Hulk nickname 😂)
While it's impressive the comparison vs the Deep Sea in terms of how thicker is the DS vs the new SD...
I can't wait to receive mine, hopefully in some days, and then post some pics
Below the IG pics I was referring to, with the credit of the guy who posted there
I hope this won't break any forum rule, in case I ask in advance the moderators to remove the pics or even close this thread at their discretion, only trying to contribute to a rounded discussion on such a controversial anniversary watch
Best
Luca

PS: I deliberately decided not to touch the magnifier lens affair, which I still believe could generate a lot of discussions

The most important is that you like it. When it comes to the SD, things are not easy.

I think most of the SD fans were waiting for something faithful to the DRSD. The cyclop is one thing, the size is another one. The last thing is that the Deep Sea took an important place, so life is not easy for this new SD. Best, Nicolas

To me it will be huge hit!

I see the new anniversary SD 43 mm like the anniversary Sub LV: anniversary models are transitional model at Rolex and will transit into a regular model. My guess is the the SD will keep the 43 mm size maybe and even the cyclops, as a regular model. The 4...

Regular model?????

Where did you see that this was a limited edition, this is simply a replacement. The SeaDweller has now been completely set apart from the Submariner line and given it's proper place in the Rolex line up. I praise Rolex for building this new model and wis...

I did not say limited

I said it is an anniversary model. And those were always replaced with other models later on.

SD4000 no longer...

appears on the Rolex site, therefore this is an "Anniversary" model but also a replacement in my mind. You can argue about semantics, but in the end this is and will be the NEW SeaDweller.

Seems perfect for me!

Perhaps they should have chosen another name demanded by the history of this model and by many Rolex lovers who care a lot about the long tradition and history of this icon. I haven't got the chance to see it in flesh, but I think it could be the perfect ...
