If you set up a poll I bet it will end up 50-50. So my advice is to try it on and decide if it looks good on you.

You need to see a doctor if start hearing voices in your head.

Seriously, try one on and see if it's not too big for you. Good luck.

tough call. Do you own any other Rolex watches? If the Subc is your only watch, then I would say stick with it. I own both and love each differently. The DSSD is just so unique.
It is not one for suits but I don't wear formal clothes much. Go with what your heart says.
I have thought of flipping the DSSD but just can't seem to do it as all I have to do is wear it and it always stays!

Gotta go with what you like best. I think the SubC is a great watch but if the DSSD does it for you there's your answer.

Besides they both have great resale value if you ever want to change your mind again.

I never understood the argument that DSSD won't fit under your sleeve/cuffs. why would you wear it with the suit? if you got a job that requires you to wear a suite, I am sure you can afford second watch, like DJ or any other dress watch. the whole idea of sport watch and suite .....
not to offend anyone here but I think you wear sport watch with casual cloth and dress watch with a suite...


I have both Sub-C and DSSD but I like DSSD more.

Personally I would keep the Sub c. I have owned the DSSD too but with my wrist size (about 6.5) I just find it to be a bit on the large side. I certainly would try it on and see what you think. If you love it then I say why not, buy it for yourself and wear and enjoy

After I brought a PAM 347, I sold all my remaining Rolexs and got myself a DSSD.

That looks quite big on your wrist... Maybe it's the camera angle....

Like the strap though
