My decision was...

This beauty. Only a couple of hours old. New from AD. Peeled off for your enjoyment. Better pictures tomorrow in better light. Quite happy right now.

SD4K all day. I can't believe how much more comfortable it is to me than the 114060. It is also perfectly balanced aesthetically, IMO.

I am crazy about the Hulk. It is so different and distinctive and the combination of the cerachrom bezel and that dial ... I would go for that.

I don't understand why you struggle with the decision and need our help. From what I have read from you it is highly possible:

You buy SD4K. And ended up flipping it. Then buy the LVC. And ended up flipping it.

Or

You buy LVC. And ended up flipping it. Then buy the SD4K. And ended up flipping it.

So, why struggling between the two? You are gonna flip them anyway...LOL

I'll suggest you to do LVC then SD4K.

How about a compromise and get the 116610?

I don't see a lot of difference between a SubC and the SD other than the magnifier absent on the SD and the added thickness of the SD.

What am I missing?

Big CONGRATS! Personally that choice would have been an easy one. SD4 all the way. Fortunately though, Rolex gives us a pamphlet filled with beautiful watches. :)

Cheers,
Joe

Have you compared them live, side to side? There's a big difference. Especially size-wise, and also how differently the sit on the wrist.

Cheers,
Joe

Could have gotten the SD4000 new for the same price as the LV. Went with LV hands down!
