very nice photos all, and congrats Ken my friend for your latest addition!

i agonized over this one in the AD, tried it on and came very close to pulling the trigger, ultimately passed but it's not totally out of my head. these wrist shots look great.

Happy to have a Rolex in the stable again and how it looks in the collection!

Love the 126600! Perfect gift for my 50th Birthday and fun to track it down in Italy.

sea-dweller is a classic, but in the recent months it has become obese with a pimple on its face

Hi all. Picked up mine last week and very very happy with it.

I have a question. The Ad gave me a small presentation box as for a sub.
It's seems too small for this watch though. Dosn't close properly. Anyone else found this?

I received the smaller box with my SD43, just like you get with the SS Submariner. However my box closes properly with the SD43 in the box along with the warranty card and manuals tucked away in the back flap.

All SS have the small box, bi-metal/TT have the medium and PM have the large.
Something must be in the way or the wrong place. All of mine fit with no problem. Other than that, what I tend to do is put the booklets on top of the green box and put the outer sleeve on.

one thing I have noticed when calling various dealers in California, is that a few have sold 6 or more of the SD43 while others have not gotten even one, and after speaking with one of the dealers, it seems that those not in Basel, did not get the first round of shipments.
