Hint. Only one of those adjectives is true

But the dealer i spoke want more in the way of: 114060+4700, and this for a pre/owned SD not a new one.. This i think is not a good deal for me as i pay a big premium after all for the SD... If that was 4000 euros, i would have certainly did it...

6.75 inches, albeit very flat. I’d say that’s quite small

Most wrist shots in here are very deceiving. That one is pretty accurate of the reality. My SD43 is my biggest watch, but wears very similarly to my old sub size wise.

Looking at your SD4K picture, if that’s where you wear your watches it’s no surprise you didn’t get on with the SD43 and found it uncomfortable.

Not a good idea.

Keep the ones you have, they are more subtle.. and they are TWO different dials!!

I had the 126600, and sold it after 2 weeks... Very heavy and big.. and the Cyclops was very ugly and out of place.

Uncomfortable to you, but not to me - love mine!!

126600 new is worth about $13k range. Your no date sun around $7k, and polar around $6-7k, so not much money back. Likely break even.

You would be trading two distinct watches (ceramic vs. SS bezel, black vs. white dial, 40 vs. 42 mm) for a single watch. I would rather have the diversity.

The “footprint” of the EXP2 on the wrist is very similar to the SD43 but the case back is quite different.
