Here's a photo of the DSSD...
Man, with the sales you just gave them they should have a black dial S/S Daytona with your name on it being specially shipped from Geneva as we speak!

Congrats, those are some beautiful watches.

Does that lume look green to anyone? Does it have a colour change in different levels of darkness? Be fantastic if it does.

Thanks Felly. I was ordering a few straps in anticipation of my Explorer coming in next week and ran across this. Remembered Jocke's thread with a similar strap on a red Sub, so I said wth I'll try it on the Coke. I like it, looks much better than the pic.(Of course being UGA colors doesn't hurt)

Tony the lume is very vibrante and lasts alot longer than the lume I see on my Sub.

It's kinda like a turquoise color, like the Miami Dolphins(NFL).
The only other Rolex that has a powerful lume like the DSSD is from my TT GMT IIc.

a special affection for my buddies at TRF of Greek ancestry...I wonder if
HKperf is also of Greek ancestry...

You would think

Actually it's my fault... I got a call from BB, we have a black and a white dial SS Daytona, which do you want?

I should have said "BOTH !!!" [yeah and it was the old price too.]

I'm still kicking myself...




Hey any Tacoma / Olympia TRFers out there????

Let's plan a GTG... Pm's ???
