Congrats and welcome to the family. I love the DSSD. I have only seen one in the wild but when I did I loved the size of it. Enjoy it for years to come.

The watch comes from the factory in a clear plastic little case. I've seen a few watches at the dealer in them but never noticed a sticker. when you said dealer opened the box were you talking about the green display box? If you were they don't come in that from Rolex. The AD puts it in there.
No he took it out of this plastic wrap and put it in the display box for me.

Nobody told me I could get mine wet? Absolutely love the fit.....your gonna be a happy guy for a long time. Congrats!!
