Incoming DSSD

I know I'm a bit late to this party, but I finally picked one up and MAN what a great piece. The domed crystal + matte dial give off a great vintage vibe while still feeling ultra modern. It's definitely a hefty piece, but in no way does it feel disproportionate . The clasp is incredible when compared even to the already great glidelock, but the "on the wrist " adjustment is there, enriching the user experience. It joins my Daytona C, BLNR and Tudor pelagos LHD (not pictured).

Thanks for looking:

Nice trio !! I've got 2/3 of the models...not a Daytona guy. But you can't go wrong with the BLNR and DSSD. Pretty much covers it all IMO.

Amazing piece, indeed. I have the D-Blue version and absolutely love it. Love the size, the heft, the sturdy feel.

Great collection you have!

Enjoy all in good health​.

Love the black dssd. In fact, all this talk about the new/old SDs has me wanting another deep sea...
