Very very small dial font differences but basically no change.

Welcome to the forum...the biggest difference is between Sea Dwellers that have been kept well vs. those that have been abused/not kept well.

To avoid disapointment, know that you have a 1000% trusted seller and it is worth finding a single owner watch with good service history. Or at least a watch that has been serviced by RSC in past year...

Welcome welcome, you should try it on. DS is a really nice watch but if its your first, go try it on. It's not really daily watch in my POV.

x2...the only difference is in the fonts used...if you search the forum you'll find a thread that shows the different fonts from the original M-serial to present day....best of luck and WELCOME to TRF!!

I've used to own a V serial DSSD which had what people call the mark 1 dial which I sold, missed having a DSSD in the collection and now I have a G serial with the mark 2 dial, I would not have noticed any difference if I hadn't read about in on Rolex watch forums so I wouldn't worry, condition and providence is much more important.

FYI the bezel turns to easy on the DS. I would wear mine and noticed the bezel moved during normal activity !
