You're fortunate to have already picked one up.

I think OP's looking for huge value gain due to short run and hoping to profit from a flip.

SD43 supply is pretty limited relative to other models. The AD I got mine from said mine was the first they've received since December. And they're a huge volume AD, considering that they've received maybe 7 BLNRs in the same time period, and 3 white SS SkyDwellers in February alone.

Well the truth is if anyone wants a truly limited sea dweller than the 116600 is THE only choice. 2.5-3yr run.

SD43 will be produced for years to come

negative mate. :)

I could honestly care less about any increase in value...more intriguing to me is the simple possibility of Rolex limiting supply or not and their choosing why.

Right now the MK1 sub 50tn anniversary are selling for much more than the other ones...
I agree this is a strong possibility
