Deepsea D-Blue

Is this still in as much demand in the U.K. as previous?

I put my name down on a AD waiting list 3 weeks ago, got an email yesterday morning advising that a Deepsea D-blue is expected in 2 weeks.

Phoned the AD and was advised the watch was immediately available, paid a deposit will be collecting it this weekend.

I think you can pretty much get one within 3 months.

I think the popularity and hype has died down and transferred to other items. I see for sure a few on the pre-owned market going below retail

Sd43 and SkyD will have tempted some away from the waiting lists and silly resale prices.

Some popped up recently on another U.K. Watch forum. They were not snapped up instantly as previously.

Can't see same happening for Daytona for a few more years yet!
