DSSD Rename?

Took possession of my new 126660 DSSD today and I love it!
You know how we name some of the Rolex models like Kermit, Hulk, Batman, etc.? We I think this should be named "The Meg"! It's big and beautiful and mean all at the same time.
Thoughts?

The Tank.

It is a lovely piece, in fact, I’m going to wear mine tomorrow! :-) (also in NoVA/DC incidentally)

I think that would be better reserved for one of the endless 'is it safe' or current inventory threads...

Just call yours "Propah" as it's a proper DS and not an afterthought sales gimmick!

Enjoy, I am loving mine!!

I could swing for D-Black, but not keen on Hollywood connections. Maybe I should watch the movie first!

So I'm taking delivery of a SS white face Skydweller tomorrow which I notice has been referred to as the "Silver Bullet".
Who says that Rolex junkies don't like nicknames?

How about "KONG" as in King Kong! For obvious reasons.
