Like the idea of the larger 43 mm size.

Looks like satin to me, and with a lower-profile lume pip.
Hopefully will also have the DSSD-type clasp.

The lower profile pip is nice.
Pelagos line bezel pip is flush, very legible and functional.

This is really a modern Submariner. WR300 is a bit low for the Sub as the competition is WR 600M+. Rolex is also acknowledging that the new norm for a sports watch is 42-45mm.
Rolex is late to the party but glad they are finally here.

I've been trying to decide between a sea dweller & an ap Diver. This could actually be perfect.

Luckily I bought the old SD4k last year. The new case is just too big.

Really like it but would have loved w/o the cyclops. The dial looks matte to me as well.

Thanks for the pics! Although Rolex's site states the dial is glossy, I thought the pictures made it look rather matte (satin).

Looks terrific. Luv it. Does not appear to be as thick as my Deep Sea so perhaps serving a broader market..

Gloss?
If it has a gloss dial I'm an instant buyer. I've been angry with Rolex for 50 yrs. for discontinuing this dial..My 1st GMT had one and it was beautiful. What nebbish at Rolex decided that grey dials looked better??!!!

Sharp looking watch; likely too big for my small wrists however. Love the red, pips, and cyclops!!! Maybe they should call it the Deep Sub.
