SD 4000 is a grail watch
It was made for such a short time, quite unpopular and a slow selling piece. It has all the ingredients for a future grail in my opinion. AD quickly disposed of the remaining supply to make room for the 50th anniversary SD 43 in the store. Those were the days.
Would you rather; an SD 4k or a Z Blue and Everose DJ 36?
I’ve always regretted passing on a 116600 SD 4k and am thinking seriously of trading my Z Blue Milgauss and Everose DJ 36mm for this one. If I did I would then have a black ceramic to complete all the stainless steel sport Rolex colours, but with a very s...
Well, those are all really nice…
But this is the one I’m wearing right now, and if I could have only one keeper Rolex, this would be it. Bought new when ADs sold them at a discount! Kent ...
Nice
You were wise then and now, that SD 4k makes so much sense as a one Rolex piece.
Is there anything about this trade that bothers you?
If not, I’d go ahead with it. I like the sd4k and I bet you’ll enjoy the hell out of it
It seems he is in a hard conundrum
SD4k is nice. I like the z-blue so much, if i have one, I will never trade or part with it. It is so different and electrifying. The DJ 36 is nice (is it the tt version you posted with the smooth bezel?) I like dive watches to be balanced in weight, not t...
It does make sense Nico…
but I’m wearing the Milgauss less than I was and dropping my total watch count while complementing and focusing my stainless steel sports collection makes swapping both my likeliest move.
That’s certainly a possibility but adding it enhances the DJ trade value for the SD 4k…
and I’ve been considering paring down on my total watch count.
You’ve struck on interesting points…
My Z Blue does electrify and is unique in the Rolex lineup for its playfulness. That is indeed the dj I posted in wristscan this week, a true style icon. I tried it on and found the balance and wrist feel enjoyable. I’m not a diver so that criteria isn’t ...
That DJ is beautiful
I’d wear it daily if I have one like that. Something about the white dial, the lume, and the smooth bezel makes it look like a delectible oyster. They say, if faced with hard decision, one can flip a coin. “the answer will present itself when the coin is ...
Yes 👍 that everose DJ with the smooth bezel and oyster bracelet with white dial and roulette date is my ultimate DJ combo.
As the first reply mentioned the SD 4k would make great only Rolex. The same could be said for that DJ 👍

Haha 😂 yes they were…
the sales rep was practically begging me to buy it but I had the Deepsea and five digit LV and didn’t see a place for it. No longer have the Deepsea and the SD 4k fits me better.
It was heavily discounted
The manager negotiated with me for a lowest price.. need to sell a dog.. the new sd43 50th anniversary is coming. I miss those days!
Thanks 🙏 champ 🏆…
You are certainly someone’s advice I would trust almost unquestioningly. You are like a watch whisperer lol 😂 I believe it’s ted-lo who calls you the watch Jedi?
I would sell to get the SD4K back.
I bought mine new when one to walk into the AD and the watch was in the display case waiting to be bought. I miss those days. ...
Listen to what your heart wants. But with prudence. Think wisely before you decide.
And decide with no regrets. 😅 Geross.
Do it!
A few weeks ago i managed to get an SD4K, hadn't been looking for one, it came up for sale and i decided to try it. Nothing else has taken wrist time since, why i did not get one before now I have no idea!
Similar to my case…
it had been years since I tried it at the AD. I hadn’t even seen one in person since. Then I put it on yesterday and immediately loved it. Unique case shape, not maxi and with a bubble back style case back. Just connected right away and completely see the...
