Deepsea for me. And here due to many tangible improvements the new 126660.
So I have to revise my former vote.
Best, Thomas

50th and the one before the 50th...
By: patrick_y : November 6th, 2018-00:34
The smaller Sea Dwellers are definitely very desirable to me; as they can be worn on a regular basis easily and comfortably than the DeepSea which I find uncomfortable and too heavy. The Deep Sea is similar to a Vacheron Constantin Overseas in steel, whic...
50h Anniversary ..

It’s a great watch when you see it physically on your wrist. The Deep Sea feels a little over the top in comparison. It just sits to high on the wrist. Both are great watches.

It’s a bit big and bold.

But the main reason was that, at that time, I parted with Rolex, a decision I have reversed in the meantime.
I went for the SD 43
By: COUNT DE MONET : November 6th, 2018-01:07
It has got what a future classic needs to have: red writing (that will surely disappear and be replaced by a white one) and Mark dials additionally (mine is a Mark I). The Deepsea is nice, no doubt, but the SD acquisition is more pressing as it might disa...

... mine was the first received by my AD so I suppose to share with you the mark I, which are the difference vs the other / newer dials? Thanks in advance for enlightening me on this Best Luca

I suspect if rumors posted are true about these models being short lived, either watch will be highly collectible in the future.

I could see in a very high magnification that the red printing is above a white one. This could be: a) to make the red writing more radiant b) the dial set up is programed for both colours already To me it is "clear as dumplings broth" ( German saying) th...
Red Letter for me.

Both are too large for my taste, but if i had to choose I'd go for the 50th Anniversary. Vte
50th for me...
By: keks : November 6th, 2018-14:02
A watch I would not mind owning given the oppportunity... the deep is simply too tall and large on my wrist. But the dial is cool...

Another vote for the SD43

I thought I will never get a Rolex. But this one pushed me over the edge. ...

even if the Deep Sea has got some improvements now. I tried them both, and for me the SD is easier to wear. Best Thomas
126660 Blue for me
By: gpinto75 : November 23rd, 2018-10:42
The visible updates are subtle but collectively make a big difference. Size and comfort work for me, in the abstract and when compared to other watches I enjoy wearing. Bracelet adjustability while on the wrist is brilliant, of course. Dial is more appeal...
Old Post, but thought I'd chime in
By: Mostel : June 16th, 2019-18:35
I got a chance to try both of these on at an AD... while there's no arguing that the SD Red is a perfect specimen, and preferable to a Sub--my issue w it is that it looks too much like a Sub. So, at a glance, you have 'a Sub' on your wrist... the Red is s...
Voted with my wallet, too
By: gpinto75 : November 23rd, 2018-20:13
Will have mine on-wrist sometime next week. Well reported changes, include: thinned and reshaped lugs; lengthened minute and seconds hands; widened bracelet and clasp, updated ring font; and, of course, new movement. What’s less well known is that the lug...

The Deepsea gets my vote.
By: One day just one watch : June 22nd, 2019-10:11
I have had both versions and sold them already because the Deepsea is a bit too heavy, bulky, sits high on your wrist so you keep hitting stuff, but...I really love the black and blue dial, i love all the technology that have been put into it and i think ...
