My 2 favourite steel

Have been through/still own most of them and these are my 2 favourite steel models

Add a YG model to this and I think you have a finished collection.

The SD43 has not left my wrist since I bought it I’ve worn another watch for a day or two then put it back on it’s the perfect every day watch for me.

The sky dweller has lost a lot of wrist time as you can see by the date after I got it out today! It’s my most worn watch (other than my old datejust 36). I’ve got a meeting in the morning and will switch over to the sky dweller well see if it can reclaim it’s throne! (Currently watching game of thrones I’m not sure if I said subconsciously)

Awesome combo.

Too lazy to make a new picture but my SkyD and DaytonaC are my absolute 100% most worn. Rarely wear anything else. Including the 126610. Well maybe my EXPII not pictured

Skydweller is an amazing watch. I recommend the sea dweller as an alternative to the submariner if you find yourself not wearing. My subs took a permanent back bench after I bought it.

Literally walked into something in the kitchen and put a dent in my sea dweller immediately after I posted this

Yeah I have thought about the SD43 but being I have a 16600 and 116600 SDK I thought adding it might be overkill. Who knows. Maybe one day

Not the end of the world, about 5 o clock on the outside of the lug, it’ll polish out, I’m happy it was my sea dweller and not my sky dweller I woulda been a bit more p’d off if it was the other way round ha.

Absolutley. Dent on SD? Not so bad. Adds character Dent on Sky-D? Freak out time

Thanks for the smiles this morning, Gentlemen! Sorry about the ding on the SD, though. I’m wearing my DSSD JC today and would be a very unhappy camper if I were to dent it. (Same if I were to dent my SKYD, however, too.)

Mine too! And agree, my SD 43 gets way more wrist time than the SkyD. And the GMTII LN for that matter.
