acquiring a dssd, what about.....

your old sea-dweller? Are you thinking about getting rid of your discontinued sea-dweller to trade maybe for a different model or keep it? Just wondering!

Keep it for old times sake. I have my dad's watches and it's really cool to have them since he's passed away. Your kids will appreciate whatever you leave behind for them, especially valuable stuff.

Good question. My plan to hold for a while till I get a feel for the new reference and have time to compare.
I think it's important to understand the SD represents the last of a breed.

I'll be keeping mine

I can't imagine not owning my Z-series SD. The perfect sports watch.

Same thing here! I want the DSSD, but my SD is a definate keeper!

As Mike says, it's the last of a breed!

Definitely keeping my SD (16600), but the DSSD is not convincing me yet. I don't like all those markings on the dial. Time will tell.
