I once whacked mine against the engine block of my corvette. $1400 later it looked as if nothing had happened...... True Story with a lesson learned.

Mine had to be sent to the Dallas RSC to get bezel insert aligned.

Text on the dial makes for good reading while on the can.

Ouch! What specifically got "damaged" if you don't mind me asking?

When pulling the cord to start the DSSD's two-cycle engine, make it a nice smooth motion. Don't jerk the pullcord.

Actually had one on my wrist a couple of hours ago at the AD..a VERY compelling watch for those who are comfortable with the size/thickness. And it very interesting how the script "Triple Lock System, etc." is really not that visible when you wear the watch given the thickness of the crystal..

I cannot tell you what I've done wearing my dssd, for I would have been banned and this thread closed.
