DEEPSEA Serial Number missing from 'between the lugs'
Hello fellow Collectors,
Has anyone noticed that the serial number on the new DeepSea is missing from the lugs at 6'oclock position.... I bought a 'V Serial ' Deepsea and even though I love it to pieces it wasn't getting enough wrist time as I found that the bracelet was a bit 'troublesome' as we all know the DeepSea is so 'heavy' sometimes is hard to find the perfect occasion to wear it. Anyway, back to my original question.... I repalced the Rolex Bracelet with a Silicon Strap that way I can wear it more often  when I took the bracelet off I found that the engraving at 6 oclock only has the 'stainless Steel' engraving but is missing the Vxxxxx serial number... the chapter ring has the the correct V serial numbers that matches the warranty card etc... I just found it 'odd' that they would not also engrave the case as usual....Is this the case for all 'DeepSea' Sea Dwellers?? do we know why? Cheers and thanks fro your responses  JULIO |

I remember reading that it was missing on other DSSDs, so I am assuming that your are correct in your assumption.........It is missing from between the lugs on all DSSDs. I guess that they felt it was not necessary since it is now on the rehaut. Who knows why rolex does what they do
