PB Rolex DSSD Baron arrival

I hope that all you guys are having a really great time over the Festive Season.

 

My new DSSD Baron number 10/10 arrived from Signapore today after a delayed delivery by the local customs guys wanting to charge £27.03 for duties and handling, this happens every now and again and one has to get used to paying it.

 

So the special DSSD Baron was made in 2012 by the well known 'PB' who is one of our resident Rolex experts is a real thing of beauty and totally different to any other DSSD I have owned previously. The removed CG's, the brushed finish, the dlc's accents of the bezel and crown really compliments the watch beautifully. The double AR, the matt dial and the blue second hand and pearl set this off as a unique piece. The ten pieces were created and fitted originally with Swiss movements for those who do not know.

 

I have ordered both a brushed SS and a dlc'd glidelock bracelet to try, however believe that I will favour the SS. The previous owner told me that numerous people who admired the watch would typically ask if it were a Bamford or Project X which I can understand, however I do not believe either company take their DSSD's this far!

 

Onto the photos, I hope you like them.

 

Best regards


AJ

If you guys like the Barron you should check out the Deep from Raven. It's 44mm with a domed sapphire, sapphire bezel, no crown guards and an 8mm crown, oh ya it's WR to like 4000 ft... Seeing these pics make me want to send the bezel and crown from my Deep off to have a DLC coating put on.
