Just got word that it was a screw loose in the movement. Tightened back up and is running flawlessly!

I cannot get enough of the crystal distortion. It’s absolutely amazing.

I did! I love the watch. Just hurt my wrist bone. There’s a thread I started on it lol. I have to be careful with SDs (and milgauss) as caseback protrusion bothers me. SD4K I can get away with. SD43 was too much. Deepsea actually didn’t hurt was just too big for me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Love the matte dial. I have a D-Blue but miss the black dial very much, wouldn’t mind owning both. And I want an original V serial at that. |

MK1 “=“ is centered and the DEEPSEA text has the Es that have equal length MK2 has the = centered as well but the DEEPSEA text has Es with the middle shorter MK3 has the equals off center to the left closer to the 12800ft= 3900m and the DEEPSEA text is similar to MK2 I’ve owned all three and I like the MK2 as it looks most cohesive and the one I’ve seen the least of but in spirit of originality I would choose a MK1 if I ever bought a black dial again. It has that quirky old school dial charm of old school Subs. Somewhere around here there’s a thread specifically for this. |

Thanks for finetuning that as I couldn't be bothered at the time The DSSD. With all it's dial variations including the JC, it's the most diverse and interesting reference in the modern era by a very long margin. Unless there's a massive shift in the fashionable watch size, i believe it will come into its own as a collectable Rolex diver in time I have the MK II, which is the variant I actually fell in love with as soon as I saw it, simply because of it's utter cohesiveness. It was the first Rolex I've ever bought on sheer impulse(followed by the JC). I originally tried on the MK I in 2008, but couldn't get over the heft and the style of the font on the dial or its bunched-up nature. It's those details again I absolutely love my MK II and the best part is it was made for the shortest period of time. The DSSD, the last of the Rolex divers that possesses the remaining key attributes of the Rolex "tool watches" of old. If you're ever looking for the thread that's dedicated to the dial variants back in the day. You can do as I do, and google "rolex deepsea dial variants" and it always brings up a result for me |

Love the Deepsea, I’ve owned every variation as I’ve bought the Deepsea four different times. I sold the first one which was a MK2 because I thought it was too big. The watch felt and looked heavy coupled with criticism on this forum it gave me doubts. But I couldn’t stay away from it. The forum gets in your head sometimes. As soon as I sold it I regretted it, no other Rolex offers what the Deepsea has, namely that domed crystal that is reminiscent of the vintage top hat plexi Subs/Sea-Dwellers. Once you wear it you get used to it and I love the heft, it wears like a pm watch, you just have to size it right. I now have it once more and the D-Blue wins out for honestly by a very very narrow margin because the black’s matte dial is very dynamic. Jet black on one hand or almost tropical brown in certain sunlight, again more vintage like charm and I find the light reflections on the black dial with the thick crystal to be beautiful. I hope to own both dials one day. |
