Deepsea Challenge
Well, after a two year wait I’ve finally joined the DSC club! Not to everyone’s tastes but I’m really enjoying this so far. Will try and post more/ better pics when I can.

Congratulations I am sure you will be thrilled with it. I wear mine most days and no one pays attention. It was supplied by Preston’s in Leeds and I still enjoy Whitelocks in the city centre, when visiting.
I have found my Challenge to be very durable, and doesn’t appear to attract scratches. Best wishes for the future, and don’t forget to wear it. |

Congrats! Very unique piece for sure. I’m also guessing it draws a lot of attention?

Congrats! It's executed very, very nicely, both aesthetically and ergonomically, despite its size! Enjoy it to the fullest!

Congratulations I am sure you will be very happy with your new DSC, it’s an engineering marvel.
I purchased mine in August 2023 from Preston’s Rolex Boutique in Leeds and have worn it every day since then. No one appears to notice the watch when out and about, and haven’t passed a comment. Still enjoy trips to Leeds to my favourite bar Whitelocks. All the best for the future and don’t forget to wear your DSC. |

Interesting that's where you got your allocation from given where you're located! I was in Preston's just last week browsing but they aren't interested in me as a customer which is fine. I tend to use Lister Horsfall. Not been in Whitelocks in years! |

I know the feeling. Hopefully lighting can strike twice. I would wear the challenge into the shop a couple times and tell them how much you love it.... 'If only it was a size I could wear daily.'

Awesome. But that thing is a beast. I figure one link on each side of the band and the buckle and it’s sized. I love the technology in the deepseas. Rolex definitely didn’t make that because we needed it. They made it because they could. Wear it in good health.
