DSSD vs HULK, Possible Purchase and Pics?
Hi All,
I'm lightly considering either acquiring outright or trading my DSSD for the Hulk. One of my reservations is obviously the "size" difference and/or if I'd (re)adjust to the smaller size (I've owned other Rolex 40mm in the past but never a Sub-C). Does anyone have any side by side comparison pics of these two watches? Also, your thoughts and comments would be appreciated. Happy Sunday!

I'd make that trade. Not a big fan of the DSSD. The LVC is so unique and eye catching.

Keep DS. Hulk will be a good addition.

Yes, agreed with the above comment...Keep the DS...and pending further increase in watch buying funds...then acquire the hulk at hopefully lower price later on...

I would not sell the DSSD. Just add the HULK if you are able too. You may just regret selling the DSSD. If you get on with the HULK more than the DSSD, you can always move the DSSD after
Good luck, and don't forget pics once you have made a decision Dino

I think you'll regret trading the dssd. The hulk really looks good but I use my dssd more than the hulk. Like everybody said just add the hulk if you can.

Subc wears larger than a sub so if they were OK then Hulk will be fine but you will need a few days to adjust to the smaller size. Best wear your DSSD into an ADs.

Another vote here to not sell the DeepSea. The 116610lv is a nice piece however I (ready to be flamed here) got tired of the green in time. Even thought it was just worn in rotation. I have owned the 116610lv multiple times but it just never stuck around. The DeepSea on the other hand is a keeper IMO
If your looking for some color to mix things up what about the DeepSea blue?
