I love the engraved caseback on the SD. Are there any pics of the caseback? I assume it has the same writing as the older model?

Supposedly it's different. I don't remember what my old SD looked liked, but this one says Sea Dweller on the back now.

Nice pic!

Yes the older 16600 does not have the word sea - dweller on the case back.

As said above, the addition of "Sea-Dweller"
Other than that it looks the same to me.

Its nice that they added that:)

Thanks regarding the pic guys but the credit goes to ablogtowatch, glad I could facilitate though.

Looks great, can't wait until a TRF member snags one and does a review!

I like the writing on the back. Adds a little hidden character to the watch.

Looking at that pic, I'm no longer convinced the lugs are tapered differently than the current gen Subs.....Hmmm......

I may be completely wrong, but it kind of seems like the front of the lugs are more tapered than the back, which would give them a more elegant look from the front (in kind of a Omega way, but obviously way less extreme). Maybe it's just the angle, but in frontal shots it looks like you can see the front surface of the lug and also a little bit of the side.
