exec123 0 Posted September 18, 2011 I really want to buy the DSSD but Im afraid itll be way too big for me.. can someone that owns both take a big of them on your wrist and tell me your wrist size? Also...how are the Daytonas? I hear theyre ticking time bombs.. What if I got one preserviced from Robert? Would that change anything? Thanks in advance also.. any comments about any 3 of those watches would be appreciated, ex: who to buy from Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mspangl 0 Posted September 19, 2011 FYI that's a Sea-Dweller and not a Submariner. Robert's pre-service would change alot. The graphite treatment makes the movement way more reliable. The bad thing about the 1165.. rep is that the case is too thick and the bezel is too bulky. I'd suggest that you buy a 21j rep and hand it over to a modder who will freeze the big seconds hand. So you'll have a Daytona rep with correct sub-dial spacing and a thinner (more correct per gen) case profile - If you don't care about the chronograph function - 21j movement hasn't got a functional chronograph. I hope this helped you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mystery Shopper 5,887 Posted September 19, 2011 Sizes are about the same though. The DSSD is designed to go 3900m down while the sub is 300m. Thats alot of freeking atmospheres! Most recreational divers don't see much over 100m. I got both of these from PWC (8" wrist) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cynikal.Mindset 1 Posted September 19, 2011 that comparo pic is kinda misleading to size of the watches since that is some anorexic hair 6" wrist or something. pam vs dssd on "normal sized wrist" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

myaz 3 Posted September 19, 2011 Pardon me asking this question, not sure if it was asked before. Here goes... Which dealer has one of the most exact made rep for the DSSD/Sub? It is often asked and the search box will help you. All dealers have access to the same watches. BK does additional mods that get them closer. Look at this link from BK's Watch Garage http://www.replica-watches-guide.com/forum...?showtopic=6182 Then look at this from McNair and decide where your comfort zone is. http://www.replica-watches-guide.com/forum...nair,+dssd,+420 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

twall 1 Posted September 20, 2011 I have a 7" wrist, and for me, the Sub is just perfect. I was infatuated with the DSSD (all the gizmos, gadgets, and gimmicks), until I found out the size. It's just too big for my tastes. As far as who to buy from, I suppose it depends on what you want to spend. Myself, I get cheapies. I bought a really nice Sub from Timesshops for $79 shipped to the US, and it's my favorite. I got one from Silix, as well - and it's cool and all (a Coca-Cola red "Colamariner") but the movement and bracelet are really cheezy. If you're up to spending around $300, almost any of the Trusted Dealers would be okay. That's why their 'trusted'. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnG 41 Posted September 20, 2011 Hard to believe anyone would find the dssd too big - I had one, sold it because it looked tiny. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
exec123 0 Posted September 20, 2011 Ahh thanks for the response guys. Thinking about buying a sub from TS or Mary, apparently they have "different" best subs with diff. prices. -Oh, it seems like a lot of people have the same question? Pardon me, I must be irritating the masses and should be sent to the gulag with such amateur questions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

twall 1 Posted September 20, 2011 Hard to believe anyone would find the dssd too big - I had one, sold it because it looked tiny. Well, if you have wrists the size of new toilet paper rolls...........I suppose it would be tiny. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
g.man 0 Posted September 20, 2011 The DSSD isn't overly massive. Here it is on my 7" wrist alongside a Pam187 and a Tag Cal16. What I would say though is that the DSSD feels bigger than it actually is when worn, owing to it's significant weightiness in relation to it's actual size. A watch is only perceived as the size it is in relation to the last watch you've been wearing imo. If I wear the 187 for a few days, then put on the DSSD it feels tiny. Likewise, if I wear my GMT2 for a few days then the DSSD feels massive. It's all in the mind. regards g.man Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
