Having said that, I doubt that anyone outside of an AD can order one (I'm not even sure grey dealers can manage that...).

In any event, good luck with your search
No numbers at all? I bought my SD43 with a Rubber B strap and would like a bracelet. I just dont want to order the wrong thing. Could be a costly mistake!

Welcome to the forum

An AD or perhaps RSC can sort you out and it’ll be authentic

Good luck

Morning all. I joined the SD43 owners club about a three weeks ago. Thrilled when I got the call. I am looking for a way to pull a pic out of my photos in my phone/iPad,but all I get is asking for a URL. Not sure how to do it.

A lot of us use the Tapatalk App. It automatically sizes pictures for the forum and makes posting a breeze.

You can also set notifications so that you are alerted to someone quoting your posts. This increases engagement on the forum

Congratulations btw, the SD43 is a great reference

I do love the look son the RubberB. I am going to hold out though because I just put a blue rubber strap on my Omega Seamaster. It does make it mor casual. I have to get over the newness of mySD first I think. Maybe for next summer.

I recently noticed there are several SD43s being sold pre-owned at or below list price. Are these much easier to get now at an AD, or are they just less popular than what they were a couple years ago?

The prices at DavidSW are unchanged from a few months ago, but I do think private sellers and others trusted sellers are lowering. One of the other trusted sellers ( Justrolexes?)has a NIB for around 13K. That is definitely lower than when I was looking three months ago.

Congratulations

In Tapatalk, try sending the picture as an “attachment” not as a “picture or gallery”

Tapatalk re-sizes the image so that you don’t have to do anything

I have had my SD43 for a couple months now. It was my grail watch and it seriously is my daily driver now. The other night my wife and I were talking about watches and I kinda stunned her by saying “it’s really getting hard to take this one off - might consider thinning down some of the rest of the collection”.

My other watches are occasionally getting a 1-day trip on the wrist, but then they go back in the case and the SD43 is back. It is NOT too thick, NOT too heavy, NOT too rounded on the back. Perfectly comfortable (I like a heavy watch). Looks great with everything.

I think about this quite often . I own many watches and continue to collect but the the thought comes to me I should divest and make my SD43 my one and only . I could easily have my SD43 as my one and only . I just don’t know if that will ever happen.

I put my SD43 on last night for the first time in a few months. It sits so well on the wrist and is so comfortable.

It's the medium and 7.5"

I was on the line between M and L

Large may have worked a little better since a small part of the metal gligelock link is showing out of the clasp, though I think it sort of balances the other end of the clasp so I'm happy with it.
