Anything is possible but it seems the SD43 dits that role now so maybe not.

I don’t think it needs it. The 116610LN is just perfect as it is.

Why would “Submariner” in red vs white suddenly make the watch more versatile or appropriate for all occasions?

Red text instead of white makes that much difference to you! I think it’s already a one watch candidate.

I have the red SD. Such a small splash of color makes the dial so much more beautiful in my opinion. Not so much that it’s more versatile or anything like that, just more interesting and therefore easier to not get bored of and want something else, at least for me. SD is awesome but a slimmer sub case would be cool.

If it ever is manufactured again, you will see photos, as we do for the BLRO but, buy one?

It will happen eventually.

Earliest would be on the next sub (since they have been doing red letter lately)

But most likely for the 100th anniversary Sub in year 2053

34 more years....

I think the SD got that gig. People would rather have a SS blue dial sub I'm sure.
