Current SD43 owners...
If Rolex replaces the Red Sea Dweller with White this year what do you plan to do with your watch? If this happens my assumption is the 2017 SD43 could become collectible and valuable, compared to MSRP. 1. Wear it as usual, watches are meant to be worn. 2. Box it up, lock it up for the day it's a valuable collector's watch.I'm considering my options on this. I'd like to preserve it's current nearly perfect state, but would also miss wearing it. Watches shouldn't be purchased as an investment, but some models become valuable over time. Red SD's from the 60's/70's (not sure when they were produced off the top of my head) have proven this could happen to the Red SD43. Even if it's Red for several years. Note: This is not a debate on whether this will happen. I know no one knows. I know they've never run an anniversary model for 1 year. This horse has been beaten to death, revived, then beaten to death again in plenty of other threads. Thanks for your input!
