Ok everyone- so...I am thinking about flipping one of my watches in the mix - and wanted to get some opinions on what everyone thinks before I do so.

Thinking about replacing my blue YM with a DSSD as my daily wearer.

I've been mesmerized by the DSSD for a while and it was between that and the YM when I bought it 3 months ago - and I just think I will like the DSSD better...

Thoughts?

I'd gladly do it...

Don't do it...add don't flip. The YM is such a special and unique piece.

But I'm not a big DSSD fan--it's the thickness that puts me off, so it's up to you.

I'd pick the deep sea over the ym

But I do think they're are better daily wearers than both of these (sub,exp, ex2, sd)

Good luck

Do you have the Yachtmaster or Yachtmaster II? Thats the big question... because there is a considerable size difference there...
If you have a Yachtmaster I it would be more suited for daily use and more comfy on the wrist... Now if u have the YM II that in itself is a pretty big watch also... I use my DeepSea as a daily as much as I can but at times I tend to go to the smaller models because it is a VERY top heavy watch...

tkerrmd · 10 March 2015, 11:15 AM

Thoughts are I bought them both, still have the YM (my sons)

I think as an all round watch the YM is way better. You also thought that three months ago so

I agree with Larry and Tom, but you do sound tempted, if you can save and add that would be ideal.

Thought about just going that route...I really don't flip - but sometimes I get the urge...

Truth be told...I probably need to wait till after Basel---there are a cpl of things Im keeping my eye out for and would order immediately.

regnant · 10 March 2015, 09:10 PM

If you can handle extra thickness of the case and weight of the DSSD go for it. YM nonetheless should wear more comfortable for daily use

brandrea · 10 March 2015, 09:18 PM

I've tried the DSSD on several times, and I think for me it would be a watch I'd wear occasionally but not as a daily wearer.

Racerdj · 10 March 2015, 09:25 PM

I'm in the 'save and add' camp on this one.

kilyung · 10 March 2015, 10:27 PM

Yup save and add
