There's nothing remotely common about your DSRD.

David and Danny that is too funny. David I recently heard someone say that your DRSD is "...the nicest watch that I've seen in the flesh". Whenever I see a pic of it, knowing that its your's, puts a smile on my face.

Right, Quick English lesson for you guys. Now concentrate:

COMMON - adjective. Widespread; General; Ordinary.

In no sense, shape or form can these words be linked to either of the fantastic DRSD's offered up for our delectation.

End of lesson

Wow I am humbled, thanks John and I am equally as happy about that one of a kind safe queen being with you. Or all the safe queens you have now

This is long gone now but used to be mine. Mk3 dial. I knew NOTHING about vintage at that time. In addition.....this is waaaaayyyy before I even knew how to use a camera .....I mean look at it, poor lighting, no macros, shaky hands....absolutely pathetic... And that's not to say I know what I'm doing now, but I like to think that I've improved? a little? Haha....Believe or not, it wasn't even that long ago!!
