Wow great post thanks a lot, Hannes and Percy for the great pictures and John for posting it in the English section.

Thanks for sharing those pictures. :gut:
In my oppinion the older Rolex and Tudor watches look much better. :(
Kind regards

Yesterday I was just hating the new sd and now I m thinking about trying it and mayabe (just maybe) love it.
I just want to try it and the see the oyster clasp.

I feel exactly the same, immediately felt like "no no no" first pics i saw.
But now after a good night of sleep it's growing on me, and i start to like it very much!
Would really love to see one in person, but i guess that will still take a few months before they hit the street... :grb:
Still have dificulty with the black writing on the inner ring, for the rest: :gut:
Only hope that 43mm is not too big for my wrist...

:] for me is:
ceramic bezel
domed glass
the new fliplock
the blue illumination

;( for me is:
maybe the casesize, must see it and try it to be sure
the writing on the inner ring (ring lock system & gas esc valve etc)

Wish i could try one on right now!
