Like others, I was smitten with the Submariner after seeing an ad for one in National Geographic as a young teen. Fast forward - was given a 2 tone date as a college graduation present but it never resonated me. Spent the first year i had it trying to figure out how to make it look more like a sub. Fast forward 16 years - bought myself the sub in 2005 and wore it nearly nonstop until last June when my wife bought me the SD43 for my 50th birthday (I'm not sure why but she understands my watch obsession). Wear the sub occasionally - otherwise it's the SD43. I have other watches but I'm stuck on the Sub and SD43. I'm truly blessed.
