I think it looks great, however I really prefer the Daytona on leather... looks awesome. :D

arniman2001 · 13 July 2010, 01:21 AM

Awesome... mine is for sale right now... this makes me wanna keep it.

sugger · 13 July 2010, 01:52 AM

Looks great

Shade · 13 July 2010, 01:58 AM

Looks pretty good, very casual...

MagedMS · 13 July 2010, 03:26 AM

Looks nice.. but not practical for a pro diving watch !

Rikki · 13 July 2010, 11:27 AM

Greekbum was telling me about a Hirsch leather strap that has curved ends that fit right up to the case they are called Leonardo straps. I looked them up and they definately look sharp I have a 16233 I picked up that was in a motorcycle accident I restored in but the band was completely destroyed I will be getting one of these Leonardo straps for it. I put a white Bold Roman numeral dial and new hands sap cry and tube and crown plus movement parts it looks real good I'll post some pics when I get the new case back from Rolex. Rik

tachif · 13 July 2010, 11:41 AM

Love it !!!!

Omega_Precision · 13 July 2010, 11:52 AM

Not bad...it looks great.

George Ab · 13 July 2010, 05:41 PM

I was ready to hit

just reading the thread title, before I looked at the pic.

Darn that looks good! I'm sticking with my bracelet, but it looks great. If I want a strap, I wear my Pam.

zak98 · 13 July 2010, 10:33 PM

very cool.. definate "tool watch" look.

Randy · 14 July 2010, 06:02 AM

Nice Look! Maybe some strap makers will build a nice thick strap for the Beast!

Rolesor · 14 July 2010, 06:21 AM

I think it looks awesome! Especially on the wrist,,

i5475p · 14 July 2010, 06:23 AM

Why Doesn't Rolex release an OEM rubber strap for these ?

I would own a DSSD tomorrow !!!

darklord · 25 July 2010, 10:56 AM

What size strap is the DSSD? I may look into a leather option as well....

darklord · 25 July 2010, 10:57 AM

And does anybody know any good strap sellers?

mdtddd2007 · 25 July 2010, 11:11 AM

sure very much like a pam....looks great!!!

TARDIS · 25 July 2010, 11:15 AM

Divers watches don't normally have leather, but in this case, well it does look smart.

I still believe the SS 904 looks better.

The Explorer and Explorer II seem to be more compatible with a leather strap than a DSSD IMO

darklord · 25 July 2010, 11:28 AM

I am not a diver (DSSD), nor am I a pilot (have the IWC BP as well)...just love the watches.

Think black leather would be worth a shot to see how it looks.

cajunron · 25 July 2010, 12:23 PM

I like it. Now you have another option for a different look.

Lol-x · 25 July 2010, 12:28 PM

Good idea and a good result. I think it would be very comfortable too. Maybe DeepSea will be the Panerai of Rolex with multiple leather strap versions. The thickness of the leather strap is a great companion to the thickness of the watch case

Doesn't the glidelock have problems with the spot welds?

Does anyone know of a rubber strap that fits the DSSD? would you give details please

Green Arrow · 25 July 2010, 01:58 PM

When I wore Panerais, I purchased a number of 'WATERPROOF' leather straps. I didn't try the ocean, but they worked just fine in the pool. I think you could use a "waterproof" leather strap with a diver if you wanted to, and be just fine.

dwr · 25 July 2010, 03:27 PM

no way

My Deepsea on a Breitling diver-pro II rubber strap ..

Benwah · 28 July 2010, 10:45 AM

Nice combo, but I do prefer the DS on bracelet

levessh · 28 July 2010, 10:59 AM

That looks great, first time I have seen one on a strap.

seawolf · 28 July 2010, 04:40 PM
