The deep seaweed to be specific.

I proudly own both versions now with the D-blue being the all time favourite.

Don't worry, you'll own the new Sd soon enough.
That's if you can get your hands on one at the RRP.
LOL.

I actually like the new Sea Dweller. I really with I could wear a 43 mm because if I could I would buy it for sure. Maybe I need to go on a perma dirty bulk just for the SD50

Sometimes there's a reason they aren't popular.

Actually...previous one is SDC4K, as the SD4K was in fact the 5 digit runs with the 4K depth rating and non ceramic!

No, you are mistaken. Both SD are 4000 rated but Rolex named the new ceramic version as "Sea Dweller 4000" and hence its nicknamed as SD4K and used almost exclusively on this forum. Never heard the term SDC4K for 6-digit version and SD4K the the 5-digit.

Love it, the 42mm Explorer was perfect size for me, just grew a little cold to the white dial and steel bezel. This is exactly what I have been waiting for!
