Icon5 TT Sub trade in for SD or SS Sub or Deep Sea SD?

Have a 1998 U Serial TT Sub with Black face, in excellent condition. Also have Steel Daytona with Black face and TT GMT C. But want to get a watch without polished middle link. Which one should I go for out of the above?

I would try on the watches above and see which one 'smiles' at you ! The SS Sub is my favorite, and I have an SD, but find it a bit top heavy for my tastes. Good luck on your choice !

I have no idea which one is right for you...only you can decide.

I can tell you I've owned a SD, Sub Date & SubLV...all are gone now as I use my DSSD as my daily watch and love it. No question in my mind I will not be going back to a Sub/SD as they are just too small for my liking and the DSSD is a thing of beauty. For me it's far from too big and it is extremely comfortable (and the new clasp is amazing and so easy to adjust on your wrist as the temperature changes throughout the day...I probably loosen & tighten a few times per day on average).

But again, that's only my opinion...I know many (maybe you too) will disagree. You've got to go with the watch that you know in your heart of hearts is right for you. Good luck.

I can second that. My DSSD has become a fixture on my wrist since I got it 2 weeks ago.
