My questions would center around usage environments and when you decide to grab a particular watch for given occasion. What rationale do you use (if any) when deciding which to wear?

Leisure
Formal
Dinners
Etc

Which one is your GADA watch? They all seem too nice for a “beater.”

I rarely ever wear the SS DJII anymore I typically find myself between the Sub and the DD40 usually the Sub for the more casual and dressed down occasions and the DD40 for the nicer days/nights out.

Hard to say they both serve different looks/purposes if I had to choose one I'd probably pick the DD40 but it's tough as far as what's next I'm leaning towards something on rubber strap either AP or Rolex on OF.

Very nice trio, congrats!!!

One question, is the DD a 36mm or 40mm? I'm just interested in its proportion side by side with the the all gold Sub 40mm
