I picked up my SD43 a month ago. I had a list of Rolex I wanted and it wasn’t right at the top, but now that I have it, I have to say nothing else is getting a look in in my rotation and I bought the LVc at the same time. I can’t agree with those who say it’s not a daily wearer; it’s comfortable, accurate and great to look at. I love this thing.

Other watches in my sig. I’m thinking about a BLRO next, though I’m currently trying to work out if I really love it or am being sucked in by the hype. Probably a little of both.

SD43 was my last pick up just under a year ago, preceded by the SubC and these remain my only six digit models. Both are superb designed and constructed watches, though I cannot see ever abandoning the five digits!

What about the Seamaster is more casual than the sea dweller?

I have the SD43 as well as a BNLR and a 42mm Explorer 2 polar. Also have a few Pams and a Bell & Ross ceramic. Hoever, the Rolexes now get most of the wrist time. Looking at a CHNR or DJ41 in the future.

How about a Kermit? I think it compliments my SD43 quite well.

I rotate between the SD43, a Tudor Black Bay (when I want to go with a leather strap). Really like the White Daytona as well but who knows how long the wait for that will be.

Got a SD43 in Nov and basically have not taken it off my wrist. I poor SMP gets no love.

Top contenders for my next watch are:
White Dial Skydweller-On the list
Hulk- On the list

and a watch that has really grown on me
Yachtmaster 116622 Sunburst Rhodium dial. I think its a really nice mix between elegance and sport

I’d look at the EXP2 polar dial, or perhaps if you want to go outside the brand, look at a Panerai. They have tons or options tha wear similar in size and are super casual due to straps.

Id like to pick up a PAM 422 later this year...
But the explorer 1 is really nice. I love he weight and size. Reminds me of the 5 digits

As a dress watch, the omega deVille is pretty classy and not too expensive
