Congrats,
this watch is on a total different league when it comes to wrist presence.
The cyclops critique is something I don't understand since the cyclops is Rolex's signature. The fact that is was not on a sea dweller before was simply it was not feasible with the technology at the time. When they developed that technology they added what had to be there since the beginning.

This morning on the way to work I went to the AD “just to try it on” and of course I ended up purchasing it (same theory I guess about going for a test drive in a new car). And I must say, day 1 and I am LOVING it. Funny thing, I put my sub-c on just before and after wearing the SD43 all day and the sub-c suddenly appears to my eyes to be so small!! Also, while I understand that the cyclops is a controversial feature, I’m a fan!! I’m 54 and so are my eyes. That’s one more reason I’m loving the SD43. Easy to tell time and the date; even if it’s 54 year old eyes!!!!
