anyone have a 21j dssd v3? I needs a bit of direction

[dandonnelly]

I am interested in buying a 21j dssd v3 I have read that they share the same build as the eta but have a mineral crystal. I am wondering if the insert looks as good on the 21j watch as it does on the eta version as I feel it is amazing. If anyone has one could they post some pics of it?

from what i have read in the reviews, all V3s have the same bezel insert, only the movements has been changed, may it be asian or eta

i got a V3 last saturday, this is not the actual pix, but this is what it looks like when i got it.

after doing some bezel insert paint job, this is what it looks like now

it has a 21J asian movement

hope this helps

and i hope i'm right. hehe

who did you get it through and how much I have been looking on a few sites and most are 120 but king said 200 shipping included. I could really used the help, I love the look of the v3, the insert had that rolex shine

sori, i don't think i can help with that.

i live in the philippines, we have so many reps here.

i got the DSSD from a chinese friend who is a supplier of the dealers of reps

i got mine for less than a $100 only

based on reviews, there are good dealers here in RWG and RG

thanks

Why get a nice Rolex like that and not have the same smooth sweep of a Rolex for a few dollars more?

i guess the're right.

if only my friend brought an asian 21J and an eta movement, i would have chosen the eta.

thanks

Hi There Dandonnelly,

Well i got my DSSD last week from andrew @ trusty time. the 21j version ( http://www.tt88time.com/index.php?main_pag...roducts_id=3659 )

And its spot on .. looks fab, and the crystal front even has the rolex crown engraved at the 6 o clock point (which i only thought you got on the ETA versions) Personally i think they all have the same Synthetic Sapphire Glass front and saying different is just an excess to put the price up..!! But just my opinion .. And if the movment does go bad there cheap to replace.. only down side that i have noticed is the movment is louder than the original.. butr apert from that the look and feel is VERY gen.!

But saying all that , i was nosing around on RWG yesterday and cam across this site ... not sure if there a safe place to shop from .. but good prices..?? i might get a test purchase from them soon..

There DSSD ETA is cheap..!

Cheers .
