Hi all,

Just pulled the trigger on a Deepsea this morning, and I am..................... rather enjoying it so far :-)

Thought I would mention that I got a good percentage off the list price here in Italy, and bought it from an AD. I had been getting almost every dealer here and in France quoting me list price (Euro 8350) or more (one quoted at Euro 8900, one at Euro 9000, which is a bit much if you ask me), but thought I would persevere a bit more.

So it's possible to get a discount it seems, and this was from a walk-in with no prior dealer relationship.

Welcome to the club. My DSSD is my dedicated weekend watch.

jedinite · 4 December 2011, 02:59 AM

Enjoy it, that's the watch that made me buy another Rolex

Dominicwarren · 4 December 2011, 03:01 AM

well I am certainly not ruling Rolex out for my next purchase, might be a while though!

ecsub44 · 4 December 2011, 03:09 AM

Congratulations!

A DSSD is on my list...if I ever decide to buy another watch!

Dominicwarren · 4 December 2011, 03:13 AM

What's strange is that after trying it on but before buying I was seriously thinking about getting an aftermarket strap for it when i did actually buy, but now I have had it on properly for a while the bracelet just feels totally right.

43builder · 4 December 2011, 03:22 AM

congratulations on the purchase. I've has my DSSD for about 3 months now and still love it. I never take it off either!

joleel7 · 4 December 2011, 06:57 AM

You will love your DSSDbmore and more.. Enjoy with god health.

novan3 · 4 December 2011, 07:14 AM

Nice catch, that's a great price. Those are 11 grand at Canadian ADs.
Currently $1 CDN = .73 Euros. Europe seems nice place to go shopping.

dddrees · 4 December 2011, 08:10 AM

Great choice, Congrats.

Yes, the bracelet is awesome, the clasp adjustments are incredibly easy

I have a friend who swapped the bracelet for a high-quality rubber strap and I have to say it looks good. However, I still prefer my Deepsea on its original bracelet because of the micro-adjustments that are possible with the Glidelock.

Good Choice!

I got a DSSD too when it first was made!

I LOVE IT!

michaelt · 4 December 2011, 01:23 PM

It is the best. I have two of them. One as a backup. Not kidding. Guess it could be said I like it.

SALTY · 4 December 2011, 09:42 PM

Congratulations; welcome to the club.
Wear it in good health.
