Host your images on a site like photobucket or imageshack, and copy/paste the forum codes they provide you in the reply box here - easy. Congrats, and look forward to pics!

Good choice just please dont refere to it as the beast....

I love mine but be prepared for the haters( 40mm lovers who are terrified about their tiny watches losing value in the wake of large watch greatness)

Once you wear the DeepSea any other watch doesn't feel the same quality

Thanks for the responses and reassurances. I was honestly a little concerned about the size at first but after trying one on a few weeks ago that all went away. Plus I'm 6'6 weigh 230 and have both arms sleeved - so in all reality the 'size' concern seems to disappear. I also have nearly 8' wrists. All that said I think this one will definitely be a keeper.

The DeepSea has it all - the clasp can even be adjusted while the watch stays on your wrist - unlike subc clasp which you have to take watch off your wrist to adjust - that in itself is more than enough technology design but with matte dial , full 60min bezel, domed sapphire, all night blue lume, no cyclops, big crown, titanium caseback, the 12800ft depth rating (for sheer bragging rights by Rolex), worn by james cameron to bottom of mariana trench inside the single man submarine, the helium escape valve, ceramic and platinum bezel, 120 clicks rotation, solid links bracelet , maxi dial , maxi hands and a divers extention link goodness me the DeepSea is one truely epic watch!!
