New SD43 and some wrist shots and next to other Rollies

Here are some shots of my new Sea Dweller 126600 with my suit, and also with a Explorer II and next to a submariner as well at the dealer, for size comparisons.

I love the watch and after 4 days of wearing it, it is off by about 5 seconds!

Great pictures - I'm loving mine as well. Perfect size and it's very comfortable.
The dial is amazing as well. When the sunshine hit it looks fabulous

Has now become my favorite watch. Not much rotation going on these days.

Just wondering if any other owner has experienced what I have with my SD43 bracelet. There is a stickiness between the 2nd and 3rd full links from the end link on the 6 o'clock side. The link makes a little bit of noise when you move it and sometimes sits at an odd angle while wearing indented in towards my wrist. It is only on the one side and it goes away temporarily when I wash the watch but always comes back. It's almost like it might be missing the sleeve inside the link. Just thought I would ask before sending the watch to the RSC. Thanks!

Strange - it doesn't happen to me.
It's the perfect watch at the moment so I don't expect any mistake 😉

Can you confirm that the face of the SD43 is bigger and not just the bezel?

Looks like the face is bigger. If you can double check with a measure of some sort I would really appreciate it.

Hey, that is not my watch nor strap - I merely quoted someone.

Cutlass is the one who can answer your question.
