Thanks for all the kind words everyone.

I've only had it for a day, so far. But I think I made the right choice. It's smaller and lighter than I thought it would be and seems comfortable enough for daily use.

Pros:
interesting
not too common
no cyclops
writing on case back

Cons:
had to give up my exp to get it

Still happy...

The SD was my first Rolex. Unfortunately, I flipped it to "upgrade" many moons ago...:( I would take a SD over a ND Sub, 7 days a week and twice on Sunday. Nice pick-up.

You made a FANTASTIC choice. The Sea-Dweller is one of the most beloved Rolex models ever. I know I'm a fanatic of this model myself.
