Deep Sea question on dial.
I had a new Deep Sea in 2008 right after the USA release. My Rolex Deep Sea had a matte dial. It defiantly was not the normal polished black dial of a Sub. The question is...Did Rolex change the dials to the shinny polished black dials? On their web site and a few I saw on the eeebay they look polished. Mine was not and it was defiantly from my AD I paid $9,250 for it. I added some photos of it when I had it below. Thanks, Troy

DSSD Matte Dial
The Original DSSD have Matte Black dials.. Polished dials are probably fakes!
Here is my V49XXXX for comparison..

Yes it could have been a fake one but if you look at the photos on Rolex's own web site it looks polished to me. Thanks for your photo proof.

I think the domed crystal has an effect on how it can seem not matte.
Mine is matte also.
