Got it!!
I’ve been searching for my first Rolex for quite a while - specifically a Sub Date.
I also wanted to purchase it from an AD so I could have the satisfaction of having a watch that was all mine. The day before my AD locked down from the pandemic, I was offered my Sub date, but as we all know these were, and still are, uncertain times so I passed. Today, I got the call, not for my Sub but rather a Sea Deweller :( Went to see it anyway but the size, weight, higher price were all undesirable.... until I saw it! I love it. Perfect size. Just beautiful .... price still undesirable, but we always pay for thing we have want. I’m very happy with this new watch. I love it😻 🥰 |

When is the price “undesirable”
It’s a sea dweller, no the ubiquitous sub with 300m |

Congrats!
I had both the Sub and the SD43, but eventually moved the Sub because the SD43 just seemed a bit more "special" to me. From a functionality/wearability/cost perspective, the Sub probably makes more sense (lighter, thinner, and cheaper), but when it comes to looks the SD43 wins. |
