Deepsea or Deep Blue?

[Big Bill]

When you see this dial on the D-Blue in different lighting you won't be able to keep your eyes off of it. It is truly amazing . I only paid $12,250 from my AD that just happen to have one in stock at their other store the black dial was only $300 less then the blue dial.

Damn.... I really want one of these...

[ryansoulsit]

I prefer deep blue

[dabbotjordan]

Black is the only way to go!
Ask your self did he wear the deep blue? For me it's a way for rolex to shift more DSSD's

Love DSSD blue but if the money is an issue you can buy pre-owned Black for 5500 GBP which in current exchange rate is a steal.

If you can, go DBlue!! I've had both at the same time, I still have the blue, and always will. BTW...my wrists are 6.5 in. Good luck!

Great shot of an awesome watch

Talk of the premium over the black dial never cease to amaze me; it's £250 difference in the MSRP between the two.

I also don't understand the suggestions that people should pick up the black dial for a significant saving (taking discounts and/or used market into consideration). What I struggle with is if someone wants a blue dial then what would they settle for a black dial? You want what you want and settling for an alternative does not usually lead to a happy purchase. To put it another way, if a man was madly in love with a girl but couldn't have her, would he settle for her 'less attractive' sister? Probably not a smart move.

I think all black for me - not fond of the green script

[stratguy]

The blue is a little gimmicky to me. I vote black. I've been wearing mine everyday for the past few months.

I've D-Blue but I think black looks equally cool. Black looks a bit more classic IMO.

The height you get used to after a day or so. I wear it like any of my others. Loose enough to put the first part of my pinkie finger thru. Wears like a PM piece, weight wise.

Been wearing mine daily for nearly 3 years. You really don't notice the size, height etc once you get the proper fitment for it.

I too was sceptical of the D Blue dial when I first saw pictures. In fact, I stated in several threads how the green lettering wasn't for me, that I wasn't into commemorative watches, blah, blah, blah ...

In June I was at my local AD to see if they had a Daytona 500 in stock, and low and behold, there I saw the DBlue. The rest as they say is history

It's a truly mesmerizing dial and it truly must be seen to be appreciated.

Agree...and nice shot!

[Shaky]

D-Blue all day long for me..

Beautiful dial

[AE5]

Blue

[brmeyers]

Let's Go Blue!!
Owned a black DSSD, but saw blue in person and it's stunning.
If I go again, it will be D-blue all the way!
Remember, blue is more, but holds more value too...

I used to have the same opinion when it first came out but then I saw it in real life.
I couldn't wait to get one after that

I loved my D-blue but it got old fast, I preffer the classic black look of my DSSD.

[Ritch99]

The black all the way, the original Deep Sea...
The blue to me seems less classic Rolex diver to me. I just can't take the blue serious. I feel the same about the BLNR.

[undant]

Deep Blue is beautiful but you can pick up a nice preowned black dial for $8k. Hard for me to justify the price differential
