Congrats. SD43s are growing on me. I may have to start asking around. These appear to be easier to acquire than Daytona C or SS Skydwellers.

I wasn’t a huge fan when they were first released but after seeing it in person and handling one, I wanted one. It really is a fantastic piece with a ton of character. Admittedly I got very lucky today!

Superb!

I've explained to my AD I need to be the next SD43 on TRF.

Haha *puts head in his hands*. I wish you much patience my friend. You could always pick one up from a trusted seller if you don’t mind paying a little above msrp.

Congrats!

It's a striking watch when worn, pictures don't do it justice:
- Slightly larger than the 40mm series pieces yet not over sized
- Well balanced case:bracelet
- Has a good heft yet far lighter than the full PM pieces
