One more sleep

Also does anyone know if I can use a regular watch screwdriver to remove the divers extension or do I need something else?

Congrats on the SD43! I also have an incoming that was delayed due to the holiday -- tomorrow can't come soon enough!

Ouch. You are in for a long workday. I have you beat though. My SD43 was delivered to my office a few days after I left for a 7 day vacation...Not good when part of you is wanting vacation to end to get back to work...

Welcome to the club. I’m sure you will love it. Do give yourself time to get used to the heft though, because ones your used to it, you can’t go back

Alas it’s here and after a quick trip to get it sized...

First impressions is you definitely feel more of the weight compared to my hulk. Wears similar to my SkyD, but because it is bigger does not seem as top heavy.

My wrist is 6.75 in and you definitely have to wear it slightly snug. Also I did remove the diver extension. At first the RSC said it was against their policy to remove it. But later they agreed. Didn’t know they were that strict...

Yep, the heft is definitely noticeable. But I think suits the casual nature of the watch
