Help me choose between Deepsea or Submariner
Hey guys, I've got that 'need' for a new piece.
I currently have a Sub Hulk, a GMT Batman and a Tudour Blackbay Blue. I was looking for something a bit more dressy and nearly bought a SubC two tone Bluesy, love that sunburst dial! Then I tried a Deepsea d-blue, wow what a watch, but £1.5k more. Now I can't decide, please help

Not sure I would consider the DSSD Blue a "dressier" watch... Amazing piece though.

Boom! I'd go with either one of these, but given that you seem to like more colour in your watches maybe the Deep Blue is the way to go for you. You might also consider a Daytona since your at the price point for one with the DB.
Good luck choosing!

If you want something more dressy try a dj.
You already have 3 sports watches. |

Hmmm...well...if you're looking for something a little more 'dressy' -- out of those I would go with the TT Bluesy --- BUT --- having said that...there is something very special about the DSSD.
It has some serious wrist presence, and for me got A LOT of attention when people would see mine....it can't help to stand out, but not sure I would say it is 'dressy'... ...then again...I honestly think that you can wear just about ANY reference with shorts and a golf shirt to a tux...so... just my .02 good luck!!! |

No really stuck on dressy, it's just I recently sold a TT Aqua Terra as I was not wearing it much and thought I needed another goldy watch. But then again would I wear a Bluesy, work attire is just shirt and chinos, don't do suits much.
Now I've writen it down I think I 'need' this!

Tough decision, to be sure. I think I would go with the Deapsea. That is, if money were not an issue.

Definitely give the SD4000 a look, I'd go that direction over either.

A DSSD and Sub could coexist just fine in any collection so the answer is BOTH!
