Deep blue

Not sure what it is about the JC Deepsea but it always seems to be the go to. The size, fit and dial bring it all together for me.

Have to agree, there doesn’t seem to be so much love for them compared to the GMT’s for example but the dial is sublime.

I've had it for a month and a half and it's still a 100% honeymoon. Feels like it will never end!

Only because of the size (real men have huge wrists!!! hahaa)...it blows the GMTs out of the water! Have mine since February and its hard to leave it behind when I'm doing a rotation...

Great wrist shot!

It's my favorite SS model, hands down, and wish I had the wrist to pull it off.

Looks good OP.


I’d have to be a 250lb body builder before trying to wear one out.

Thank you! I’m at 7.5. Tried one on at AD. Really leaning toward picking one up!

I’ve had mine for about three weeks, so still in the honeymoon stage, but it wears much much nicer than I ever expected, looks much better than in pictures, the domed crystal integrates into the sloping Bezel perfectly and the Glidelock is better than on the Sub/SD. Added bonus, it’s usually black in appearance but sometimes you get that vibrant, blue fading to black.

I really want to try one on, have the SD43 and it fits just fine a little concerned about the extra height on the DB.

It's kinda of funny or maybe sad. I have the 43 and never wear it since I go with the JC.

That’s exactly why I sold my SD43.

It can fit under a carefully chosen shirt sleeve if needed.

Awesome shots! Every time I see these on the wrist I think “I can pull it off” but I know it’s just too big for me. It is one of the better buys in the current market though.

Once you wear this watch, it ruins everything else.
