I have a DSSD MK1 and don't listen to the negativity. Heck when the DSSD came out most were saying the same thing.

You do you brother.

Make sure you put it on different wrist every day to bulk both of your arms not just your left!

Huge and impossible to wear in my opinion (my local AD had one on display).

All I know is that I have 7.5” wrists and my 42mm Seamaster seems massive compared to all my other watches.

Looks ok.

Watch should your match hand size as well as wrist size.

Came across two of these at different AD’s yesterday. It is ridiculously large and heavy for me. I honestly don’t see how anyone can wear one, no matter how big your wrist is. I can see it easily getting banged up, etc. Something interesting that I hadn’t seen yesterday was a new TT SD.

There were so many watches, including Daytona’s in the cases, but only DJ and OPs available. I tried to buy a OP for my GF, but they want to keep it in the case for another month. If I were local, that’d be ok.

One of these ADs tried to get me with a TT DJ that was double MSRP. Usual runaround BS, then “we only sell to nationals”, then “oh, we have this DJ available.” Headed to RSC now to pickup a NATO for one of my Tudors. Seems like they have everything available that I inquired about at the local RSC.

Most people who complain about wearability has never seen the watch, let alone try on the watch.

wear it and own it! :)
