I was with my buddy HKperf and we saw a DSSD in the showcase in So Cali. Am I the only one supprised?

Baron & Leeds?

dcash0615 · 20 November 2008, 11:05 AM

I am not surprised. In this economy, nothing surprises me anymore. Nor do I get excited about anything like this anymore. There will be many good deals on what use to be hard to get watches.

X2!!!
3 SDDS here in my ADs.

sharif · 20 November 2008, 12:32 PM

Atlanta must be an anomoly then. I havent seen even one Milgauss or SDDS in a case..ever. Only recenly in the past 3-6 months, did I start seeing SS GMTIIc's in the cases.

DanP · 20 November 2008, 01:47 PM

At Brinkhaus on Georgia St in Vancouver they have pretty much everything that people have said was hard to get lately. very large display case. Last time I was in there I saw GV, DSSD, SS daytona. LV, even the Zebra uggh. Looks like they are well stocked.

STEELINOX · 20 November 2008, 02:16 PM

At least a couple more in South Coast Plaza, Santa Ana

Yume-sama · 20 November 2008, 02:32 PM

Not surprised the DSSD is in the case. It's not as collectible as the SS Daytona, and will only sell to a small niche market of people with very thick wrists

I don't know if it's over rated, since I've not really heard one person (even the AD) speak kindly about it. I'd say people are curious because it's new, and rightly so. According to the AD a lot of people come in to try it on, and walk out without it, snickering at how fat it is.

C. Davidson · 20 November 2008, 04:07 PM

Havent seen any in Las Vegas yet.

Z-Sub · 20 November 2008, 05:19 PM

I've seen them recently as well.

It is fat but those of us who have bought it did so partly because it is fat. If you have never heard one person speak kindly of it then you don't read many posts on this forum or any other Rolex forum because everyone who has one loves it. Diamond encrusted watches...now THAT'S something to laugh at.

I'll speak kindly about it. I love mine, my Sub is now lonely in the watchcase as the Dipsy is getting all the wrist time. I especially like thick watches and having Rolex on it sealed the deal. 43mm is the right size, anything wider would have been too much.

veilstylez · 20 November 2008, 06:40 PM

pretty crazy stuff....but still no SS Daytona or GVs on the cases yet.

kudosguy · 20 November 2008, 07:12 PM

Have tried a DSSD on and I think it's gorgeous! I have the original SD and now have mixed feeling about this classic. I wish Rolex hadn't brought out the Deep Sea, as it's made me want one badly!

Singslinger · 20 November 2008, 07:31 PM

As I write this, a secondhand watch shop (I hate the word "preowned'') in Singapore has two Deep Seas for sale - an M and V serial.

paijo · 20 November 2008, 07:40 PM

I was in Megamall (MetroManila) this luch time. Washington (Rolex AD) in 4th floor, have SS Daytona white dial, Milgauss White dial, and DSSD in their display. Never seen like this before.

f16570 · 20 November 2008, 11:50 PM

It is hardly surprising, but who knows what will happen when the economy turns.
So now is your chance if you want one.

Valid point Steelinox

rogerrabbit168 · 22 November 2008, 03:44 AM

was actually lucky to try one on at the AD last time i went in to have a look at the sub date and sd, the salesperson say they just rec'd one in for one of the other client's that were waiting for it for 3 months and that he is picking it up in the weekend. the dssd was awesome when you see it in person, i really like it on me, so did my wife, to bad its out of my budget

Don't let a minor detail like budget stop you...go for it!

dcash0615 · 22 November 2008, 05:00 AM

My AD called me again yesterday for the third time in the past sevral months trying to get me to purchase the DSSD. I of course turned it down once again.

If anyone wants one, I can see if they will sell it to you. I think they are keeping it in the safe and not the case.
