so is this the 1st attempt at the new deepsea SD ?

Yeah, a bad rep indeed... but the rep still looks better than the gen. It doesn't have the ugly protruded and badly fitting SELs as the genuine.

DeepSea is not a disgrace like YMII, it really is a tool watch with impressive technical specs, but it's just plain fugly. I wouldn't buy the rep no matter how well they'll replicate it.

The gen SFSO also has an impressive depth rating, looks 100X better and costs only 1/7.

For a watch like the Deep Sea, it's only going to attract attention, especially from the die hard Rolex WIS.

That said, why would someone want to draw attention to themselves wearing a rep like that?

The DSSD is not to my personal taste, but it does have technical and functional merit. It may be one of those watches that I warm up to eventually, but for now, it's just a bit too... Eccentric(?) for me.

Once again, I have to be the sole dissenter on the block, at least partial dissenter.

For $100, it looks like a nice rep. At least they got the depth rating right (which the previous rep got completely wrong). But it is a $100 rep, which means it is far from accurate & not likely to fool anyone who knows anything about these watches.

But when a proper SDDS does arrive & I am certain it will be sooner rather than later, it will have a nice, cozy spot waiting for it to sit, unworn, in the bottom of 1 of my cases.
