Incoming...SD43 MKI

Got this unworn Sea Dweller in from de Boulle! Was originally looking for a SS Sub for my 40th birthday from a local AD, but ended up going with the SD43. The larger size and the splash of red is what got me to go this route. Made it an even easier decision when I found a reputable seller who had an unworn one at a reasonable price!

I am on the same route, after a Sub but now preferring the SD43, going through the AD route depends what comes up first, if ever.

I agree with you and this is what made me get this watch specially the size.

Sounds like the U.K. is much more difficult to get any Rolex in. Best of luck!
