I just got a SD4K and it is a great watch. 116613 is completely different with all its color, not a tool watch in the true meaning. I would not sell.

I wouldn’t do it but it sounds like you need a change. Follow your heart.

I wouldn't say middle ground, but closer to the 5 digit lugs actually.

It slims the watch and makes it a better fit, and a real 40mm. Unlike the boxy shape the maxi lugs does to the 6 digit watches.

There are some cool features on the SD4K, but contrary to the popular opinion here, I think the lugs are short and stubby and ultimately misshapen. The date window is also too far inset. The raised crystal, the matte dial, and the HEV are very cool. To me it’s a crying shame the new SD didn’t come in closer to 41mm or even 42mm as the nice lugs on the SD43 are very appreciated.

I personally wouldn't do that trade. That's just my opinion.

You could always add a 5 digit later .
As much as I loved my SD4K I don’t miss it
that much . I would’ve definitely missed my Bluesy more.

BTW, they (TRF members ) told me the same thing before
I let my SD go , don’t do it . I’m happy with the decision.
Don’t get me wrong, If you can swing both great option but
if only one , I highly recommend doing it and getting the Bluesy !!!
