Ok MAC, since you are new here I will cut you some slack. BUT......

in the future when you buy a new watch this is how you do it.


OMG OMG OMG I Just got my Sea Dweller and its the greatest and bestest watch EVER!!! I am so 1337 now that I feel like Jack Bauer from 24.


Then after you make sure everyone else here feels your excitement you must post pics!!! I cannot express to you how important this is. If you don't you will eventually see TTIWWOP posted everywhere it stands for This Thread Is Worthless With Out Pics (dont know why the "O" is capitalized but bigger computer geeks came up with this not me )

This is how you show off your new pride and joy VISUALLY!!

Doesnt matter if the pics suck, its all good.


Show it off with some other toys or watches too











A Big fat "in your face" pic is always good to show you mean business.



then a pic that shows ppl where the SD stands in comparision to other Rolexes



And of course the MONEY SHOT






Mac I hope you understand how things work around here now. Welcome to the wonderful SD club and please have fun here and dont be afraid of crazy chinamen like me.....we have good taste

Don't get me wrong, I love the my DJ, Exp1 and GMT2 a lot (or else I would not own them right?) But something about that big hunk of steel I love to wear called the SD that I can't help but love just a little more than the others.

which is a good thing, if I didnt show her a little more love she would probably kick the living crap out of my other watches when she is in the winder

"Wound up?" More like a bloody full-bodied orgasm, if you ask me!!

OK Roger I get it! thanks for the advice

I'm working on the pics but don't expect too much!!! My camera's good but I'm crap

Anyhoo can i pick you guys brains for a sec?

My new baby seems to have a wobbly bezel!!! Well I think it might anyway.

I've noticed some "play" up/down i.e if I place a finger on either side of the bezel (3 & 9 o'clock)with the thumbs underneath the watch to hold it firm and press down, the bezel itself seems to "rock" up and down as I do it! I'ts almost like it's spring loaded because it will spring back into place when I let go.
I had my Subby for 3 years and never noticed this about it, so is this just a perfectly normal SD thing or do I need to see my AD pronto?
Cheers,

Mac.

Let me get this straight. Are you saying you like the SD, Roger? Just want to make sure I heard your screams correctly.

Mac, not being an SD afficionado, I can't help you there. I know the bezel on my GMT is tight as a drum with no wiggle.
