I've had my eye on the TT SD43 for a while now as I really like the bezel and the TT bracelet. It's my first TT watch and I think Rolex make them better than anyone else, esp the seamless bracelet design.

To celebrate we went to the new hot restaurant in town, Davies and Brook, in Claridges hotel, which is run by the famed Eleven Madison Park guys. The food was top class as expected and beautifully presented, especially delicious were the duck, lobster, black cod and scallops. I can highly recommend it.

Not sure about the fancy food but thumbs up �� for the tt sd! Congrats and wear it well!

Congrats Neil! Have to say I like the pics of the SD43 better than the food, but the watch looks great on your wrist.

Number3 · 8 March 2020, 02:20 AM

Congrats Neil, it’s a fantastic looking piece. The food looks pretty amazing too - that duck...

Great looking watch and food! Enjoy!

Congratulations Neil!
I received Thursday call for one of this but I don’t think it’s for me.
What is your impression?

Stevec14 · 8 March 2020, 05:22 AM

Food looks great. I loved it when fera was there too. I’m becoming a 2 tone fan also and that looks fantastic!

AK797 · 8 March 2020, 05:22 AM

Thanks guys. The plates are quite bare but you basically get 5 courses from the a la carte instead of the usual 3 so I was more than full.

djgallo · 8 March 2020, 05:26 AM

Great watch....Enjoy!

I really like the TT, it's pretty unique, it has a nice presence but not too much, if it were all in gold it would probably be too much.

Stop drinking, son.

alphadweller · 8 March 2020, 06:29 AM

Congratulations Neil.

The TT is definitely growing on me, waiting for a Bluesy SD43 if Rolex were to ever make one.

Awesome watch Neil and great way to celebrate it

JSolution · 8 March 2020, 07:02 AM

Watches and nice food, perfect.

Sorry mate, but that is an appalling watch, borderline offensive. Does not fit the occasion at all. Top 3 ugliest watch from Rolex alongside the new airking and YM2.

Congratulations Neil!!!
Looks really great on your wrist...

I agree with you, no one makes TT better than Rolex .
I haven’t seen one in the flesh yet but looks really sharp in pics.
Food sounds and looks fantastic as well , glad you enjoyed it .
Wear it in the best of health my friend...

You should be sorry, threadcrapping on an incoming is classless and not acceptable on this forum. Don't do it again.

Simon_jrees · 8 March 2020, 08:12 AM

Watch looks great! Food looks Great!

Token74 · 8 March 2020, 08:20 AM

Man, I really want to hate this watch. The Sea Dweller should not have a date magnifier, a dive watch shouldn’t be two tone, and it’s too big!

But...I think it looks really bloody good!

Congrats!

I know what you mean it's not the norm, but I've had a few Subs and GMTs, both in SS and full gold, so wanted something different, and the 43 certainly is and has a unique musclar presence and no little beauty. I was also considering the TT YM2, and I esp love the blue and RG combo but I opted for the 43... at least first.

Art 1 · 8 March 2020, 09:51 AM

I would need to stop at a McD’s on the way home.

DJ39 · 8 March 2020, 10:03 PM

Nice watch,

If this was instagram, you would would have the food and the watch together in one shot
