Also has anyone noticed that Rolex has shorted the SD43 a link on the 12 side so the divers extension is exposed? I removed mine..

Mine is in the safe. Wife says if it is for my 50th birthday, I can wait till then. Since I got a Hulk a couple weeks after it, waiting is not so bad. That said, think it will ultimately get more wrist time than the Hulk someday

I did because I didn’t like the extension being exposed off the end of the clasp

Got ya ! Never noticed that . Seemed that on the tightest bracelet setting it was still big for my wrist . Subs and gmt bracelets come perfect sized for my wrist but I'm guessing because this is a different animal the bracelet is bigger from the start . Guessing removing a link would do the job . Maybe extension as well , no diving anytime soon thanks !!

Anyone here have/had both DeepSea and 43SD? I had a deep sea and flipped it due to massive size. I’m considering a 43SD but am a bit cautious due to my DeepSea experience.
