New Arrival

Just traded a couple of watches from my collection for one of these................





























I have a few DSSD/Omega PO XL comparison pics if anyone wants to see them. Maybe I should start a new thread for that though?

It was a hard decision to let my mint SD go for the DSSD but I think I made the right choice.

Thanks for the comments guys :)

Very nice. Looks like you could drive over it with a tank and nothing would happen to it.

Nice watch and nice photos. I hope you enjoy it. They really make my Sub look small.
Oh no, I'm getting Rolex envy. This could get very expensive.

The DSSD is indeed a fantastic looking time piece!

Big CONGRATS on your new watch. Enjoy it, and wear it well.

Cheers,
Joe
