WatchnRoll Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 Hi guys, I just got my DSSD from Joshua today and I love it! It's a serious super rep and so close to the real thing...really great stuff. My only question is on the buckle on the bracelet and the way it sits on my wrist. It doesnt seem to be snug on both sides of the clasp... When it is sitting on my wrist on the back of my wrist the clasp seems to be a little droopy if you know what I mean...the back of the clasp is not tight with the bracelet. It seems to float away from the bracelet where my other Rolex bracelets dont do that. I've attached a picture to see what I mean...this is the extreme with my hand in the air and the way the clasp sits from the bracelet...it's not that bad when i'm not holding my hand in the air but overall seems odd to me and not that way it should be... Is this normal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maugomez Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 i had the same problem... the solution was to eliminate the "extra" divers folding thingy and "voila" problem solved! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh awesome! How do I do that? Is the Gen the same way? I can't seem to think the gen is like that too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maugomez Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 (edited) Oh awesome! How do I do that? Is the Gen the same way? I can't seem to think the gen is like that too... you´ll need a screwdriver (small one) and thats it... i don´t have the DSSD anymore to show you some pics, i bet some one here could do us the favor. PD. nope it wasn´t a gen it was a DSSD V4 (i guess) with the eta copy Edited February 2, 2010 by maugomez Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lanikai Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 Looks like you have some Xlarge wrists.. you can loosen it by adjusting the ratcheting part of the clasp.. that may help or you may need an extra link or 2. it does droop a little though..

Thanks. I actually have pretty skinny wrists...under 7 inches for sure...I think the pictures look fatter than they are...LOL Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
creation88 Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 Don't be too disheartened -- I've read that a few gen owners remove the divers extension too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jkay Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 More than 1 person who bought the Ultimate has this problem? My 8 month old v5 DSSD's clasp sits tight and close ... not droopy. So *yes* you have an issue there which should not exist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolfire Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 Mine droops ever so slightly... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WatchnRoll Posted February 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 So I will live with the slight sag on the clasp...if doubt the gen has the same issue as Josh said it does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marinamm20 Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 no droopy on my from T4D - strange that i varies this much sorry for the crappy iphone picture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jkay Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 So I will live with the slight sag on the clasp...if the gen has it...it's good enough for me. Yes the DSSD is a great watch but it does NOT have your clasp issue. Your clasp is indeed a problem and not something that's normal. Excuse the quick and dirty iphone pic - NO SAG .. the clasp sits firm and tight against the band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does still have some sag. I'm going to contact Joshua. It's a really amazing super rep I just wish the clasp was tighter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ym1966 Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 You are right and I appreciate it. Once I put the divers extension back on and tightened everything up...it is sitting pretty snug now. Only has a slight sag. I'm happy with it now. It's a really amazing super rep. i bought a deep sea from Andrew and it had the same problem with the clasp. i asked Anderw about it and he send me a new one that fits perfectly. it shouldn't be like that. you should ask josh to send you a new one...it is in fact a great rep.

I hope he does the right thing on this for me like Andrew did for you. We'll see. I am usually happy with Josh and his service so we'll see what he says.
