Jkay Posted October 5, 2010 Report Share Posted October 5, 2010 Older Noobfactory DSSD (Josh/Cartel) have a missing piece in the diver's clasp. Is that what she noticed? Not every DSSD rep has this flaw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dizzy Posted October 5, 2010 Report Share Posted October 5, 2010 Ive noticed the DSSD that I had was a different color steel from my MBW watches. I found the DSSD was a greyish color compared to the brighter white steel of a Breitling rep for example. There seem to be 3 types of stainless used in rep watches ( I cant remember the numbers) but they are white, blueish/yellow and greyish. Even when you polish them out, they have a slightly different hue in the sunlight. This is one problem I find when mixing and matching rep bracelets and clasps. Some stainless is even a duller more "aluminum" looking color. I think the bright one (Breitling and old rolex) is the 316 stainless and Rolex now uses 904L on the newer watches which has a little more nickle in it so its a little more yellow/blue. Im sure someone here can explain it better. Other than the color, I dont see what she would have called out on your watch. Other than the fact that you are wearing a hard to get $9,000 rolex. I hope you didnt wear it into a Auth rolex dealer because that is a no no. dizz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jkay Posted October 5, 2010 Report Share Posted October 5, 2010 DSSD parts are strictly controlled by Rolex. You can't just buy one. If you want a brighter bracelet on your watch, I suggest cleaning it properly. This will really make it shine .. it is dirtier than you think. Really.

Jkay Posted October 7, 2010 Report Share Posted October 7, 2010 I have had my DSSD tested when it was serviced, to be sure it's waterproof .. I shower with it on and MAN is it clean and shiny when I get out. You can also use Cape Cod metal polishing cloths on it to chemically clean it .. be very gentle on the bracelet tho since the cloth is a polishing cloth and will wear away the "brushed" finish !! Just get the cleaning chemical on there and only rub hard on the mirror polished surfaces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted October 7, 2010 Report Share Posted October 7, 2010 What store were you in? Maybe the lady thought it was supposed to be a submariner and saw a clasp she's never seen before and assumed it was a fake? dizz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
