baadsha88 Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 (edited) while browsing the TT website, i came across these two rolex DSSD reps: ROLSD017 - http://www.ttw888.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1_8&products_id=6579 ROLSD029 - http://www.ttw888.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1_8&products_id=10333 017 was released in 2010, but costs more than the newer version 029. 029 claims to have improved the bezel by making it pitch black instead of the greyish bezels of the early reps. one interesting thing i noticed while looking through the QC pics was the shape of the triangle around the pearl: ROLSD017 - 2010 ROLSD029 which one is the better rep in your opinion? any others you would recommend? edit: AR doesn't seem to be very good on ROLSD029 Edited July 1, 2013 by baadsha88 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBuys Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 Your second photo is the most accurate relative to the triangle and pearl. Is it supposed to be superlumed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baadsha88 Posted July 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 (edited) really? the top of the upside down triangle doesn't look strange to you? it doesn't look straight to my eyes compared to the gen below: rep: Edited July 1, 2013 by baadsha88 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baadsha88 Posted July 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 also, what do you guys think about the new version (ROLSD029B) vs a modded one by BK or Trevor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netniet Posted July 2, 2013 Report Share Posted July 2, 2013 I have the 029B, and it is a very nice watch, but the only thing that i think is not so great is the bad alignment of the text on the ring lock. I have the same aligment of the words 'ring lock system', (2nd photo) on a Noob version (like BK) it is much better done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rrari1 Posted July 2, 2013 Report Share Posted July 2, 2013 I have the BK one and love it. It is worthwhile getting a DSSD waterproofed by a modder, as they are usually not waterproof at the HEV. It is also worth while re glueing the pearl on them, as they seem to pop out easily. A quick search will give you some info on this problem. I used a two part epoxy glue to re glue mine, best not to use superglue. The genuine DSSD has no AR coating on it, so I would not worry about that.

netniet Posted July 3, 2013 Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 can you please post a pic of the bad alignment of the text? thanks Sorry, i can't post a pic because i am on holiday right now, and i don't have the DSSD with me. But it doesn't look that bad on you're DSSD, i am just picky, and after a while it doesn't bothered me anymore. It is still a great watch.
