Smab Posted January 25, 2012 Report Share Posted January 25, 2012 Happy Wednesday to all wristaholics! So I aquired a DSSD, newest N-Factory with Selita swiss movement. By coinsidence, since I planned for another item, but they were out of stock, so I landed on this one. I must say, I like it more and more. The bracelet is not top, have asked for a replacement (see last two pictures), but the rest is very nice. Only thing I do not like, is that Rolex have designed such a narrow bracelet on such a big lump of a watch. 21mm at Lugs,and it tapers to 18 at clasp! The watch is 43-44mm, and about 17mm thick. Nice with long sleeves, but I do not think it look quite as good with short sleeves. Must wait until springtime, and see. But it is quite comfortable, if you are used to heavy watches (like 47mm PAM, SFSO etc). I especially likes the glossy ceracrome bezel with inlays and the thick, dome sapphire. The distortion at certain angles is very mesmerizing to look at (see pic). I discovered that after wiping the bracelet clean with a cloth used for cleaning lcd-screens (it is very soft, with some alcoholic solvent) made it much more sparking and shiny. It must have been quite dirty when sent from the supplier. Was grey and dull at first sight. Much better now. Brush/satin finish is very nice. Enough words.-.. Here it is, enjoy responsably, as they write on the beer-bottles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deltatahoe Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 regarding your comment regarding the tiny bracelet for such a big watch, that is definitely the most common complaint about the DSSD -- it is topheavy and feels odd on the wrist. one suggestion -- try putting the DSSD on a nato -- i've found it helps secure the watch and feel a lot less topheavy. all the best, deltatahoe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duke1973 Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 The exact reason I flipped mine! It's a great watch/rep but the top heavy flip flopping of it on my wrist was enough to make me leave it in the watch box most of the time.....

Jkay Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 Very many replica watches arrive dirty with factory oil and machine grit all over them. They all look much better after a wash and clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
