If rolex releases a new Sea dweller this year and discontinue the one that exists then you are going to be one of the priveledged ones

Hey that's great! I just got my SD back from the RSC and that thing is running spot on now. I really missed having it for a month, and seeing it on my wrist again and feeling its solid heft is really wonderful. Having had it and missed it, and being a bit biased myself, I can say it sounds like a wise decision to keep it!
