(two fewer than in mine), considering each link is about 3/4", your wrist figures to be around 6". I consider the DS to be too bulky for my own wrist, and got a new SD instead. If you're comfortable with it, more power to ya, but not for me.

I regret that the new DS appeals to the people who formally bought Breitlings, I just feel Rolex dive watches should be more serious than that. It's a lovely piece of work, but the professional diver I bought my SD from says he will never own a DS, and the divers he knows who did buy one based on the early buzz now wish they had not. Sorry, I don't mean to be negative, but that's just the way I sees it.
