Voted for the Sub, I have the pre-ceramic that I got from Mary last year.

 

I took delivery of a fine specimen DSSD from prestigewatches yesterday and it is an engineering masterpiece! So I can compare the two.

Still ogling and marveling at the fine detail of the DSSD, but as I was slipping into town today the Sub seemed a more sensible option!

At the moment I'm getting the vibe of Sub for sensible everyday stuff, DSSD for the more peculiar occasion, when bigger vibes are required! :facepalm:

Vote cast for DSSD. Sub just doesn't do it for me. Just seems to lack presence.

Sub - classic European sports car

 

 

 

DSSD - An American SUV. A Hummer for example.

 

 

 

You chose

 

Absolutely right, although the DSSD is a nice watch, it's unbalanced, topheavy and it's design out of proportion

 

The Submariner is an iconic design

Tricky one this is.... :D

I'm not a big Rolex fan.....yet

With my wrist size it have to be a sub I think.

I like the fact that this is still going as a topic.

 

It appears that the DSSD is preferred at this point....suspect mod influence on polling numbers and all :D

I voted for the Submariner a while back and believe that's the right choice even more now. Maybe when they release the DSSD in this colour scheme...

sub-c: small wrists, everyday thang

 

dssd: big wrists, It seems not too ok if worn everyday..

Voted Sub. DSSD seems a little overwrought, Sub is classier and can sill be dressy as well as sporty (diver-y).

I think you're probably hearing the same idea more than once.

I own both a very nice DSSD that I absolutely LOVE, It's big, it's substantial I have it in stainless and in a black PVD "Pro Hunter " model but the SS DSSD is a superb, and I mean superb rep watch. The glide lock clasp is a thing of engineering beauty.

 

On the other hand I have a very nice sub as well, it's a gorgeous watch. Looks as gen as they come, has the new quasi glide lock clasp that is also magnificent. A beautiful but different watch.

 

I don't think anyone can tell you which one you should get, it's different for everyone. Personally I like both. I do love the heft of my DSSD, as someone said, "I like hearing a clock on my wrist". On other occasions when I go out to dinner or am dressed up for work I usually wear my Sub.

 

It's a really hard thing, and its even harder if you decide to own both. Hmmm what to wear today...

 

Just my $.02 for the day

Cheers,

Peter

IM currently a happy owner of a NoobSub (16610) and am definitely eyeing a DSSD as my next purchase

 

My only problem with the NoobSub is the weak-ass lume. Th lume is almost non-existent

 

Is there a DSSD Rep with decent lume? Im hoping for Luminova-level, but anything decent should do

 

Ill vote once I own both and can decently compare :lol:

My vote goes for the submariner. It may not be as big as a DSSD, but a Solid gold submariner has loads more presence than any plain old DSSD.

DSSD looks good, but I just dont like the black color, would buy it if it comes in blue color.

 

Robeert sells a blue DSSD dude, and it's good too!!!

Funny you should mention:

 

I see this watch EVERY day, have put both the wrong 10 and GEN next to eachother, and the difference is so mineut it's funny. Of course I HAD to have the correct 10 bezel, but damnit, we need someone to actually photoshop them OVER eachother for all to see.

For me the sub is better although I find that a little action man for some occasions as well.

I actually bought a Gen DSSD about 18 months ago but only kept it a couple of days it was just too clumsy for me seemed difficult to keep it in the right position on your wrist. Just too thick and band seemed to narrow

I had to vote sub, I do have both but it seems out of all the watches I keep having the sub on my wrist most often, especially SS, I do have a few other colors also but the traditional is the only one I use constantly

I have both. The DSSD has much more wrist presence due to it's size but there are times that I want to be more subtle so the Sub comes into its own for those occasions.

 

Both look great. Buy both! ;)
