gmtlover Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 What is the best rep/aftermarket bracelet incl clasp for a BK DSSD? And where can I source it? Please Rollie experts let's hear you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duke1973 Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 The Deep Sea should have came with one of the BEST bracelets Rolex has ever made IMO! The clasp on the DSSD with it's easy to operate glidelock type clasp is awesome. You can get the perfect fit and it's very quick and easy to adjust on the go when your wrist swells/shrinks with temperature chages. Did you DSSD not come with a bracelet?

Jkay Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 You are wearing it. Clean it, lube it properly, and you will be very pleased. Use dry lubricant for bicycle chains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But aren't there supposed to be numbers engraved on the SEL's like a Sub? And the Rolex letters on the clasp are lasered instead of engraved as I see on some other clasps.

duke1973 Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 This watch came from BK like this? Pictures of the bracelet and watch head would help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmtlover Posted January 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 Hey guys, here are the pics, But I found out the bracelet's of the DSSD rep's al look like this. I really don't want to discredit BK, he is my favorite dealer out here. I am just curious how I can make this watch even better. I mistakenly thought it should look like this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jkay Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 Rolex strictly controls dssd parts. Last time I heard, gen watches all had to be sent to Switzerland even for the most trivial service. Maybe you can find gen parts. I doubt it tho. And yes, rep bracelets are lasered.

So what you are saying is that there are no better versions of a rep bracelet/clasp available for the DSSD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikellem Posted January 16, 2012 Report Share Posted January 16, 2012 Correct, there is no better version and the one you have is excellent.. Leave well enough alone.. MM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smab Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 Hello. Though I would slip in with a commet as well. Just got mine DSSD. Bracelet in generic is good, but mine has some serious finish issues. I am utterly supprised, as I red some topic regarding the best rep bracelets available, and this was regarded to be one of them. I find that finish and overall quality is essential to this, not only the function and wearability. Please see pics. I doubt these are easy to fix my self, so I filed a complaint to the dealer, asking for a replacement bracelet with acceptable finish and quality, equal to the finish and quality of the watch itself.

LondonBloke Posted June 2, 2012 Report Share Posted June 2, 2012 I feel the same with my DSSD bracelet. The bracelet doesn't live up to the quality of the watch. The gap where the Rolex crown locks over the bracelet is uneven, the wet suit extension opens up too easy and the Rolex writing on the clasp doesn't look good. I would be very interested in understanding how I might be able to improve this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muaitai Posted June 3, 2012 Report Share Posted June 3, 2012 It seems that all DSSD reps are coming with the silked Rolex on the clasp, its a shame, but so far I have not seem anyone selling with engraved Rolex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
