Incoming Goldilocks

Incoming Sd43 which I see as the goldilocks for us heftier-wristed gentlemen. I have owned Subs, GMT’s, and a Daytona, and always felt they wore small on my wrist. I have tried on the Deep Sea several times but could not get over the case thickness. The SD43 is the happy medium for me

Looks great. I've always been a fan, but it wears a little too big for me. The red text is killer.

My thoughts exactly. Submariner is too small. DSSD was too thick. SD43 is perfect! Looks great on you! Wear in great health!
