sd43 landed: two 50th Anniversary models ! 2017 126600 vs 2003 16610LV
my sd43 landed in NJ yesterday June 15th, I thought it would be fun time to compare 50th Anniversary models ! 2017 126600 vs 2003 16610LV.
The evolution is real in every aspect there has been so serious improvements ! the semi matt dial on the sd50 is truly awesome, and comfortable: despite having a true wrist presence it wears very well, proportions are perfect. enjoy the pics! PS:to mention the discontinued 2016 seadweller, there was a 116600 when I picked up sd50, but it looks really, really bare and simple, nearly homely....proportions were top heavy too, despite feeling narrow (imho) the sd50 is a complete home run !

Great pair.
Tapered lugs, that's the way things are going to go. What was learnt from the Porsche fried eggs - it's never too late! Regards |

a new 911 still 'looks' like a typical 911, but in reality everything is different and modernized from the old ones, but it's an EVOLUTION of the original design. |

Such a beautiful beast. Rolex have hot hard with the SD50. I was stunned myself and had to take it home.
Both anniversary pieces look great on your wrist. Wear them in good health. |
