DSSD Height??

Hi
Sorry I could not easily find this through Google

Can anyone tell me the height of the DSSD in mm from the bottom to the tallest point?

I have had one, I know how they wear but just never measured the height. I am looking at another tall watch and trying to see how they compare height wise

Thanks!

Also what about Case length? (top lug to bottom lug)

I know the Diam is 43 mm

Height of 16610 vs SD vs DSSD? If someone has a comparison pic, that'd be awesome. I'm starting to like the sea-dweller...

Approx. 18 mm, Jeremy - high enough to make Everest an easy climb to the top!!

HaHa thanks JJ, I am actually looking at something a tad bit taller!
Just was trying to gauge it based off the DSSD as I had one.

See you here smiling and joking made my day, thanks JJ!!

This is good to know. I always wondered how thick my DS was (case-wise). I believe my Beitling Seawolf Avenger titanium is a tad thicker.

I remember discussing this with you in the bar a while ago....

The height seems ok IMO considering the nature of the watch. Personally I think accounts of catching doors are exaggerated. When fitted properly it doesn't seem like an issue....

I remember that well Chris....
And if I'm not mistaken, you snatched one up from Oscar only a couple of weeks later....!

The height was for me, the only issue with the watch...However,when ever I tried it on in the Ad, it was not fitted for me obviously....After wearing Dalips with the correct fit, the weight and height were a non-issue!!!
I actually loved it, and now it's back on the list of eventual acquirement!!

You'll have one soon...

It definitely needs to be fitted just right, and cannot be worn loosely. Thank god for the glide clasp....
