wonder how much of a price increase the DSSD will go up in the next few months?
here in the UK it went from £7070 to £8040 the last time it went up

thats $11500 to just over $13k ... those prices where LIST AD prices by the way

had mine for a good while now and it seems to be getting more and more popular in the AD's window displays, .. seems to take center stage in the ones i see on a regular basis! ...

But does that mean its in the display more because they cant shift them!??

The DSSD was the only Rolex my AD has given me a significant discount for, was told to get lost with Sub-C and Explorer II

Seems the DSSD is very hit/miss model for many. Personally I was bit by the bug this early summer and pulled the trigger on one this fall. Have to say its been one of the most fulfilling Rolex purchases I've made !! It just seem to have the right vintage details with modern construction....a winner in my book.

never really thought of Rolex having to try to "SHIFT" watches to be honest! ... maybe their expectations of this model were a bit ahead of the customers needs

time will tell i suppose

This sums it up for me. The perfect blend of vintage Matt and Maxi Dial with awesome technology.

Re:

Little feedback on my SDDS with an orange Isofrane and George's EndLinks.

Nice look, very nice, it's awesome, I love it, the rubber is extremely comfortable and the weight reduction very noticable but only for the typical environment of a desk diver. I still think the flexibility of the rubber can cause the spring bars to move and then detach in the event of a big crash, I hesitate between the idea of ​​losing my watch on rubber or my wrist on bracelet in case of severe accident, to make it short I'll certainly dive with metal bracelet
