Are you trading your sub in towards the purchase of the
SD4000?
How much are you getting? I went into an AD and all they wanted to give me towards the sub was like $4500
I left felt insulted anyway I hope these next couple of days go by fast for you
Yes, I traded my Sub. I never buy from an AD as I always buy from grey dealers. Needlessly wasting money in my opinion. I got what I paid for my Sub. You will never get that buying from an AD.

I got on board this train at just the right time, because I think I have a nicely rounded collection and all for under $30k.
It's not a 5 figure watch if you buy from a trusted seller.

I paid well under that.

Congrats! But I have to ask: I'm considering a Daytona as a daily because I'm one of the few who love and use the chrono function. But my fondest Rolex memory was when I owned a 1665 Sea Dweller.
As I save for the Daytona, the SD4K sometimes "taps me on the shoulder" if you know what I mean, What makes it a better daily than the Daytona?

I don't think one is better than the other for a daily watch. I own and have an affinity for fast cars and I live on and play around water so for me, they both fit my other passions in life. There is not right or wrong just choices.

SD4000 is definitely up there as one of the best of the modern Rolexs! Superb watch!

Totally agree...I'm goin to get one!
