Wow, only been here a few hours and I am learning a lot. Should have sought this place out earlier.

I have just come across the fact, via a few other threads, that the SD43 has two versions of the face, one with a Rolex crown at 6 o'clock, one without.

My very new, just a few weeks, SD43 has what I now know is the original face now referred to as the Mk1, which is to say it does not have the crown at 6 o'clock, it has 'Swiss I Made'

Now, I don't care which face I have, but I am a bit surprised that as they are seemingly so rare that I got one with an older face. Surely the pipeline being so stretched would mean any new ones hitting the dealers now should come with the newer face, which seems to have been around for some time.

Makes me wonder whether mine was a return or something. Also makes me wonder whether I now have an even more limited availability watch than I thought, assuming they stick with the crown version from now on.
