Well, given it is a 50th Anniversary watch it'll almost certainly sell well and retain high residuals. I notice the feedback is not positive on the Rolex Forums, almost universal hatred for the Cyclops...I don't quite understand that as you can have it removed if you want.
Personally I'm sold on it.

I think it's a touch big at 43mm and the cyclops is just wrong. Why nod to the red SD heritage with red writing but then add a feature that has never been a design element of the SD?
Red writing, 42mm case and no cyclops would have been the sweet spot for me and halfway between the SD4kC and the DSSD.
I'd rather have the SD4kC.

(I don't mind the Cyclops in its place). 43mm plus its depth is quite a chunky watch. In general I also think it's getting to be a very overpriced watch nowadays, eight thousand pounds for a pretty uncomplicated basic watch is pretty steep really, it used to be a normal albeit good watch that people dived with (I did amphibious stuff in the army back in the eighties and a lot had a sub or a seadweller), the latest models seem too over-engineered to me personally. Could say the same about a lot of things though I guess.
