got the watch yesterday from DavidSW
First watch I bought unseen & untried on my wrist. wow ! Its everything I wanted and hoped for... and no, its not too big for me. Removed the diver extension and it’s super comfy. Can’t even feel the hefty weight after while. It’s so well balanced. I will start another thread about how I feel about the SD43 after I had it for a week or so.... along with better pics. for now, iPhone wrist pic below, and one with the 50th SubLV (couldn't get the Daytona 50th $$$ hahaha) thanks again everyone for all ur input.

It’s a fantastic piece. Very underestimated by those who don’t own one

I love the SD43 size. If I was in the market for another diver, that would be it.

Both look great, but I think the BLRO seems better.

Lovely watch. I tried one on a couple of days ago. When I tried it before I thought it was too big, but this time I absolutely loved it. Too bad it was in a grey and £3k over list!
If I could find one at retail, I'd be all over it. I'll get my name down in the new year I think.... |

Not too big at all, as a matter of fact, it looks perfect. Get the SD43 and the YMII, as a matter of fact!!

You have the wedding ring for anything WG or Plat... Unfortunately, either way it looks like you will be forced to go PM at this point...!
Sorry, I got lost in the BLRO. The SD43 is not to big, as it is just a bit more top heavy than the Pm's...

Congrats! May be my next acquisition if I can locate it for retail. I agree it is very well balance and wears very comfortable on the wrist. You hardly notice the size/ weight compared to similar sized models.
