SD4K speculation is just speculation.....But....

Although I own every diver made by Rolex, my favorite is the SD4K. Hands down. Own a few myself.. Was speaking to someone I'm VERY comfortable with as far as future rolex speculation. Someone many of us know. He thinks it's a lock that the SD4k skyrockets. How confident is he? He has bought back 39 from clients.

Just an anecdote, thought I'd share.

He's talking about the value of the 116600. Due to it's short production run I believe.

Summary. That SD4K has a long run to the upside price-wise.

I guess he’s staying it’s a given that the SD4k will appreciate in value.

Rolex speculation. That's like speculating on the numbers on an upcoming lottery.

Yes, and no. But, if you're into that kind of thing, always follow the money. Whether is political betting or watch buying.

Maybe so but it comes across as a waste of band width, imho. Not to mention a bit on the rude side.

He's a douche. 90% of posts are snarky. An empty barrel, if you're into current news.

Are you his spokesperson? The guy comes into nearly every thread and has some unnecessary negative comment. Thats not theory, thats fact. He's a big boy, he'll be fine. Theres one in every forum.

Someone's bought 39 sd4k watches?

Whilst I'm a fan of the older seadweller, the sd4k did nothing for me. I just felt it was lacking something. Couldn't put my finger on it. Felt a bit underwhelmed really. So decided against it and bought the LVc instead. And then later the SD43.

But I do acknowledge it is much loved by those that have it. And it does look good in pics but just not on my wrist.

Give or take, true. Kind of makes my point. Feels pretty good about it. Obviously, i'm not talking weeks or months or few years, but multiple years likely.

I like the new SD43, wear it occasionally. I mean, I like them all. Wear them all occasionally. Honestly, lately have been in bromance with the good old standard sub. But I fell in love with the 16600 in 2001, so it just feels at home. The only 5 digit I own.
