DSSD - How tall/high does it sit on the wrist?
Hi guys,

Even though i hated to admit it, it does sit too high on anyones wrist. It was my daily wear for 3 months but had to admit to myself that the Sub was much better proportioned. Sold mine on here a few weeks ago and no regrets.

What a monster. Understand the attraction as a tool, hands down, no argument. Not so sure I understand the attraction as a daily-wearer for those of us who have 7.5 inch wrists!

I have a 7 inch wrist and wore the deepsea for 15 hours a day and the watch was very comfortable to wear. But I sold the deepsea because i was nervous wearing a $8,000 watch. Now i wear a $95.00 Casio.

Love the G-Shock - really only $95? I thought they were £500.

Well they do say beauty is in the eye of the be-holder,IMHO it just looks out of proportion.
