Information needed on DSSD

Hi all. Looking to add a DSSD to the collection... Had one, sold it to get my 116613LB which I LOVE but do miss the DSSD. My question to you is, I have heard there have been some incremental changes to the deep sea over the years. Is this true? If so, what are they?

Thanks!

Apart from price the DS is still a DS in a nutshell.

It's a great watch, totally over engineered but best owned as part of a rotation which you have so I say go for it. I love mine

Apart from that silly blue dial there have been 3 different dial versions with the black. The watch has had no changes. My daily wear since purchase and actually makes the other divers seem bland to me.

No real significant changes...have to say the clasp adjustments on the D-blue are a work of art. Better than the sub glide lock, a feat I never thought possible.
