I think competition between the sellers is starting to heat up.

I prefer it with no cyclops as well. Once it is in my hands I will attempt to remove it. I don't care if it's "not gen". It's my watch and I'll do as I please lol

I got used to the cyclops right away even though I wore a SD4K for a while

Can anyone tell me why this rep costs $458 on most TD sites except on Watch Outlet? They sell it for $397
Watch Outlet's price is less because they are "Wholesale" "Outlet" dealer. They do NOT provide after sale support.
If the watches DOA, loss, or confiscated by custom then you are on your own.

But WO is a TD right?

WO is TD with RWI ... also owned by Angus (the same person that owned PureTime)
There is NO "price competition" between WO with other dealers. Different prices for different support and services ... You should read and understand the terms clearly before you order from WO.

better than our Noob SD4K V2 which for me is an amazing rep!

Do you prefer the model or the quality of the watch when comparing between SD4k and SD43?
Would you guys say this is a better rep than the SD4k 3135 v2?

Was seriously thinking of ordering a SD4k but now that I have seen this I'm seriously reconsidering and thinking of ordering this one...

Both excellent. ARF a step forward with 904 steel. I think your decision should be based on size and model. You would be happy with either

That SD4k looks beautiful indeed, any problems with the sa3135 movement of your SD4k?

Do you find the ARF to be much larger? I thought the SD4K was about my limit on how big I can do on a watch, but this new ARF is making me want to try it out if it's only slightly bigger.

I love the SD4K case shape and lugs but find 40mm small. What can I say about SD43 size? Feels close to my EXP42 in size and comfort. Wears smaller than 44 PAMs. And smaller than the DSSD which I call a chunky monkey [emoji12]

What’s cool about SD43 for me is it wears like a larger Sub. If you have a 7” + wrist it looks perfect for a sport watch and still fits nicely under a dress shirt cuff
