Well... ditched a classic and I came back to modern

Not sure why, despite my own advice to others about the height....but just felt the need to give up a classic Sub 16610 and come back to a BNIB from DavidSW!!
As always his transactions are SMOOTH

Once I get a few good wrist shots...will post

I agree....16610 is still the best Vintage/Classic/Modern all around watches ever.

I just meant I came back to the Ceramic's ...and I had the DSSD before for over a year...let's see if it has better luck this time

No it's just this one.... It definitely crossed my mind, but I never seen the D-Blue in the metal, so took the safer (and less expensive) route
