This type of minutiae that's important to "collectors", means zero to most watch enthusiasts. I actually like the small coronet in between SWISS MADE on the MK2 dial.
I just found one in a local grey that was brand new. Fully documented. Some lucky fat bastard bought this and a TT Seadweller from an AD. He immediately sold off the 43SD. Told my friend about it and he bought it right away.
Hi Jonathan. I met you in many of Paul’s videos and this is my first visit to your channel. I have a feeling you are a very down to earth, honest and most importantly very humble watch specialist. Gonna check more of your videos! Btw, I’ve subbed !
In case viewers want to know more about the helium escape valve. It is my understanding that the valve has nothing to do with deep dives, but rather for those divers that live down deep in chambers that have a mix of air that contains helium. When the chamber comes up to the surface for decompression, the helium gas expands inside the watch and was causing the crystals to pop off or crack. The helium escape valve allows this gas to escape, protecting the watch. This is what I recall from past posts. There are most likely more technical details or corrections that the viewer may want to research, if interested. If anyone can add to this, please comment.
Stunning watch and an ultra masculine chunk of steel if you’ve got the wrist to carry it off you’ll definately get some admiring looks. The Sub is built like a tank, the SeaDweller is built like a nuclear bunker. New generation movement with 70+ hours of power reserve and easily accurate to within 14 seconds per week. It’s a quality piece of up to the minute Engineering. Nice review.
Decent effort, but was a bit of a joke when you were supposed to show US a wrist shot - but you only showed YOURSELF! Sorry, that was hilarious. I also have an 8 inch wrist, so I was genuinely curious to see the promised wrist shot. No biggie, I already have one - which I adore. My only criticism is that it is just a tad heavy. My OP41 is wonderfully light to wear by comparison, but isn't the absolute stunner that the SD43 is.
Been watching a lot of SD12660 vids.. its surprising to see how much fewer comments there are- perhaps most may be dreaming of getting the SD on their wrist?!
Lol🤣 I guess i was lucky just bought the SD 43m from my ad and a datejust two tone within weeks of each other. I have and 8inch wrist and its perfect 👍
Can I ask I've owned my SWD for a year. I wanted to change the straps to rubber B. Will this void my warranty? As I dont want to scratch the stainless steel ones I already have on the watch
I need some advice from Rolex owners out there. I been working with Rolex AD to buy my first Rolex. I get a call today Dec 10 he has a 2022 Sea Dweller 126600 Red line just came in from Rolex brand new for me and to buy at retail. I had originally told him I wanted anything Submariner or Gmt in Oystersteel. Appointment is tomorrow. Any Rolex I buy will be with me forever. I know this is not as popular as other two. Would anyone here still buy this if they were in my position? Were you still happy you bought this? Plus I see they do not hold value long term like other models either. Don't know what to do plus do not want to piss off AD. Help! Serious replies only, Thanks.
It’s a great watch Bob. I’ve bought and sold many along with giving them wrist time. Not too big and enhanced by the red writing in the dial. Go for it.
The instant this watch sits on the wrist it becomes a pain in the heart to take it off. A super stunner.
Got the watch yesterday I’m in love with it amazing size and feels the best out of all the sea dwellers
Best diver ever made.
Beautiful watch and lovely presentation by a true gentleman 👍
Thank you kindly
haha love the wrist shot that you got to admire and we were all left hanging.
Perfect watch in every way.
Beautiful Watch . Gracias
Nice! I just purchased this watch for my son and made a video about it! I love it!
Thank you
Also the mark 1 dial is the true 50 anniversary. You can tell by looking between “Swiss Made” if it has a crown or not. Great review!
Thank you Daniel. Glad you enjoyed it.
Nobody cares. Same damn watch 😂
Not to collectors

@@danielvandermerwe7921 Let's see in 30 years time if anybody gives a flying f**k whether it has a crown between Swiss and Made. I think not.

Great watch Jonathan. Another one I want 🤣
Stunning Watch...
Thanks for watching
Cracking watch. Good overview. Not sure the teletubbies theme tune helped in the background throughout the video.
A stunning piece, thanks 😊
Brilliant video
If i pick up a 2017 sd43 from AD could it either be mk1 or mk2 model?
MK2 starts only from 2018. Unless, you have a tiny cornette 👑 between Swiss and Maid then it’s a MK2.

I bought my first Rolex a few days ago and it was Sea Dweller 43 Red 2022 ..I hope it s a good money spend ..(16.240 th dollars )
Great content! Really enjoyed!
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it
Hello,
Thank you for this video. I bought this watch from my Ad
Great as always!
Thank you
I love everything about mine...
when you put on the watches try and get some over head shots!
Quality watch and great content 👌🏻
Much appreciated
Do a review on the one on your wrist Jonathan.
Excelent review, what size of wrist do you have? Thank you
Thank you Juan. 8” wrist. All the best
Just registered my interest in this watch with a AD. Hoping to receive it by 2035😩.
Lol🤣 I guess i was lucky just bought the SD 43m from my ad and a datejust two tone within weeks of each other. I have and 8inch wrist and its perfect 👍
Just got it in London 👍🏻
Getting one tomorrow
Enjoy!
Can I ask I've owned my SWD for a year. I wanted to change the straps to rubber B. Will this void my warranty? As I dont want to scratch the stainless steel ones I already have on the watch
No it won't void the warranty.
Thank you so much
Why would the value shoot up if it gets discontinued?
Wishful reseller thinking.
Did the Airking shoot up in value? 😂
Lovely Channel, Lovely Website. Very well presented as well.
Thank you. That’s very kind of you to say that.

Nice $12.9k USD watch (2022 List Price at Rolex Dealers-was $11,300). No, I will not pay flippers $16,999 for a USED one. They can PACK SAND.
Hi Jonathan, please do a video for 126603 thanks.
I will do soon if not sold before Andy
@@edinburghwatchcompany247 Hello Jonathan how many links are there in total for the 126603 excluding the half links and the ones on the lugs?
11.5
I own an Omega Seamaster and I’m incredibly jealous of anybody who owns this Rolex, because it is clearly superior to my Omega.
Rolex is so technically superior to Omega.
this or the Batman...decision decision
Both
👏👏👍
It's ok deepsea better
The Rolex Deepsea is so much better watch
