Say Aaaallo to my leeetle fwriendO.K, sorry, that was a bad Scarface impersonation 
But, I did pick-up this baby yesterday. What do ya think?
Just a few quickies of the beast :chuckle:
Yes, I'm a dork and I keep all of the stickers  But, the little bar code sticker is cool as hell :agree:
The crystal on the SD is just crazy. It's probably what I like most about it :agree:
The crown doesn't really line-up like this when it's tightened all the way. I just thought it looked good for the pic :chuckle:
I tried to get a shot of the laser etched crown, but it's not happening
Of course, the wrist shot :thumbsup:
All in all, I'm more thrilled with this Rolex than probably any other I've had. My favorite Rolex has always been Mr. Bonds watch, the Submariner (Non-date). I've owned three but they were always the first to go when flip time came around due to the lack of a date feature (which I really need) and I was never too crazy about the non-SEL. My 16610 was a great watch, but I'm not a big fan of the cyclopes. The GMT was also great, but I missed the look of the trip-lock crown.
The Sea-Dweller really fits the bill for me. I like chunky watches and this beast is thick. It feels great on my wrist. It's one millimeter smaller in diameter that the Subs and GMT, that combined with the additional height of the case and crystal makes it look like a prefect fit on my small wrist. The dial is clean without the cyclopes and, to me, is very reminiscent of the 14060M, which as I said, has always been my favorite. The dial itself with the lack of the cyclopes, the extra writing on the bottom of the dial and the trip-lock crown gives the SD a perfect symmetry in my eyes. And the crystal...oh the crystal :chuckle: The way this crystal protrudes up past the bezel just completely cinches this one for me, I love it.
