I swore in would never buy a rolex, but I got a chance to buy a deep sea still in the plastic for a killer price. Been eyeing one for years and i think it was time. Maybe a tad small for me but it really is about the ultimate dive watch. We'll see how it is!

Many Congratulations Mr Fear.

I'd love to hear your opinions on the Deep Sea once you have lived with it for a while.

Also, pictures would be nice. :wink:

I think you'd agree it's not too small.

In those pictures it looks like the Deepsea fits you just fine. Definitely ditch that SA for it - no question!
