Congratulations, it fits you quite well. On your wrist it doesn't seem quite so large. Enjoy it.

Very nice and congratulations. Wear it in good health. I personally like the heft of cold hard steel on my wrist.

Great watch...thanks for sharing the photos. You can really tell how thick it is when you look at some of the side views on your wrist.

Enjoy it!

I held the Deepsea in my hands today on my lunch hour. What an amazing watch.

I felt like Wayne in "Wayne's World" today when I tried it on.

To answer a couple of your questions; 1. I have an 8" wrist 2. I would never disclose whether or not I shave my arms

Good on you Rob - tell them nothing.

Great arm for that puppy and that DSSD is Rolex engineering at it's very best.

Enjoy wearing it.
