Hey Brian. Much better. I timed it for a couple weeks and ended up at +0.6 sec/day. But within that were some substantial swings in either direction. In other words the accuracy of wearing vs sitting was much different but in the end it kept excellent time. See below. Wish I had noted which days were worn or not but I didn't think to do it.

One of the best decisions I’ve made.
I used to say my Daytona and GMT were in a tie for most comfortable. Since I’ve thrown this on a rubber strap I haven’t really taken it off since May.

The summer has me thinking about a rubber strap and your looks on point! Is that a rubber b, if so what one? Thanks!

Not sure why I have such a challenging time posting images on this forum. Took a ton of pictures for this thread contribution. I changed all sizes to MED, only to realize that screen shots do not work. I then attempted to post the original pictures and all the potentially posted images rotated 90 degrees. WT?? Went back and rotated all images 270 degrees, thinking the mysterious 90 degree rotation would have the images right where they needed to be and then they were suddenly too big. Regardless, here is really bad image of my SD43 on TT (Red Devil / Jet Black) RUBBER B. I have a lot to say (Mostly good.) about RUBBER B but have unfortunately, wasted my words on image problems.

What is the chance of this SD43 being discontinued next year, 7 years old next year, anniversary watch, also its seems there has been a lot of new incomings of SD43 over the last two months, I have three friends that has picked up there SD43 over the last 2 weeks (@ different Ads)

High. Thought it would get the axe this year.

But just when you think Rolex will, they'll keep it around for another decade.

That’s a great picture

Try using the Tapatalk App … it sizes the pictures automatically

March 2017 to March 2023 (If discontinued at the next watch fair) is 6 years?

Please elaborate your experience with this strap. I'm considering going this route to lighten the weight of the watch.

Circling back on this thread now Mike

Hope you’re still seeing the results you had hoped for from the service

It's been great since I got it back. No plans to send back in until it's 10th birthday

Welcome to the club

As I have built my collection, I continually find myself grabbing the SD43 as my choice for the day (typically 6 out of 7 days!)

According to my wife
the sexiest rolex ever made

Hi all just sitting on the deck and watching the ducks while sipping an Arnold Palmer.
Oh and checking the time on my two week old SD.
Cheers

Just got Tapatalk and wanted to repost with a(hopefully) better quality pic.

I managed to pair the 126600 as a daily with my 126603 weekend watch

My wife also concur! She still stares at it in with that wow effect on her face.

You guys have inspired me to get mine out of lockdown and wear it today. Thank you
