Wonderful!

I'm longing for one, but it might be too big for my skinny wrist.

Great watch!
Great photo's too!


Saw my first one 'in the flesh' today & I'm happy to say that the 'ORIGINAL GAS ESCAPE VALVE' text isn't half as prominent as I'd previously feared.
Congratulations again.....

Beautiful! Wear it in good health.

My other watches are getting jealous - four days and the DSSD hasn't come off. The weight of it, both physically and visually, are wonderful. The size-configurable dive clasp makes it oddly versatile for when my wrist naturally changes during the day too - feeling a little tight? Just open the ratchet, give a flex and relief...

Same here , I really have to be honest that I wear most of the time that SDDS and I swap over because my wife has remarked a couple of times " Why do you have all the other Rolex watches as you never seem to wear them "

This is exactly what I have been saying for 6 months. Looking at hi-def photos of the deepsea is not an accurate representation of how it looks in person. I had the same reservations. My wrists are only 6 1/2" and the watch looks great.
