I've also read a few reviews from people experiencing the same thing as me. It's unfortunate because like I said, I really want to like the watch.

I recently sourced a bezel from a SD4k and a 114060 crystal and am planning on making my own version of the SD (Sub Dweller) with a 116610ln.

RG Yachtmaster and the 5 digit Yachtmaster. Loved it until I didn’t. The matte black dial was cool until it became boring, and really just made me want a Daytona. The YM was just a Sub wrapped differently.

Yes, quite a few actually. CHNR, Datejust black dial. Hulk, Exp II 42 mm, SD43. I couldn’t adjust to these watches and the novelty wore off fast.

Yea, my Daytona 116520. Thought it was my grail, took 14 years only to find that one shouldn’t meet their hero’s. It was too blingy In the end and the subdials configured that they cannot be read with precision and certainty. What’s a watch if it’s not functional, simply
Jewelry and so passed it onto my wife.
