Just one more day with the SD...


That "WristDweller" is such a beauty, Chris. Keep goingThumbsUp02.gifThumbsUp02.gifThumbsUp02.gif


Thanks Jeff! thankyou.gif Love that SubC of yours today!!! wowzer.gif

The thing I've been asking myself over the past 5 days or so with the SD is, "how can a 40mm sized watch be THIS good?"...I was a bit concerned about the slightly smaller than sweetspot size (for me anyway), but there's just something really perfect about the way Rolex executes a timepiece (and after the first 5 days with this one, I think I've convinced myself that it is more than a placebo effect). But then again, I don't need to tell you Jeff!!!

My working watch has a SD PVD exact size copy but I never felt like the watch was bigger than 40mm...
Maybe you just experience a chemical reaction called love toward this new watch...
It's a known fact than when you are in love, they all look like they have perfect proportions anyway

Maybe we should call it love then Will!!! my love.gif bamby.gif

The SD does have some nice thickness going for it compared to some other sub styled divers...I think it is the sum-of-parts here...everything is machined so sharp with very tight tolerances...precision/design of the triplock crown makes it the best operating, most robust crown design I've experienced...3135 calibre winds buttery smooth...being a diver, I appreciate the significance of the SD to dive watch history beginning with the original COMEX effort.

yes...we better call it love then Will! happy guy.gif

btw...always love seeing your custom Kazimon 1500!!!!bravo.gif
