Ok guys need some voice of reason. Been having serious thoughts of trading my 233 dot dial for a DSSD. I know many of you have both of these watches so what is the option if you could only keep one. Really love the 233 but don't seem to wear it as much as i should because i keep thinking i will ding it up. As it is I have put a small ding in the bezel and I am very careful with it.

HDHNTER · 14 February 2012, 02:19 AM

The thought to do so would never even cross my mind but then again I love the 233 & don't particularly care for the DSSD.

B. Doggy · 14 February 2012, 02:32 AM

I wouldn't.

toulouse · 14 February 2012, 02:55 AM

You'll scratch up that ss bracelet much more than any bezel. I wouldn't personally.

eric23 · 14 February 2012, 03:40 AM

I would not the 233 is one of the best Panerai ever.

zlin08033 · 14 February 2012, 03:45 AM

No way. 233 is sooooooooo much better than DSSD.

aboen · 14 February 2012, 03:47 AM

I would not.

hbrogers · 14 February 2012, 03:57 AM

Thanks, for the quick replies. I don't know what has gotten into my head. Been in and out of Rolex for years, and never keep one for more than a few months. I quess it's the WIS in me.

m_reign · 14 February 2012, 04:55 AM

I wouldn't either.

watchyou · 14 February 2012, 05:36 AM

No way, keep the 233.

sushisummo · 14 February 2012, 05:41 AM

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

toulouse · 14 February 2012, 06:50 AM

Ok, we have decided. There's no way we can allow you to do this trade.

hbrogers · 14 February 2012, 07:03 AM

Thanks guys, didn't take you long to talk me out of it. Actually wore the 233 today, and she keeps smiling at me, boredom is a terrible thing in the watch world. Thanks again

Psmith · 14 February 2012, 07:32 AM

I would keep the 233

tkc324 · 14 February 2012, 09:46 AM

esm · 14 February 2012, 09:57 AM

Aren't they different type of watches. Like Orange vs Apple?!?

HL65 · 14 February 2012, 09:59 AM

I would keep the 233.

broncophil · 14 February 2012, 11:25 AM

wow.. if someone offered me to trade for a 233, i would not hesitate for a half second..

RRGHOST1 · 14 February 2012, 11:37 AM

Not into Panerai one bit so i would swop for the DSSD.

How so?

T-Rip · 14 February 2012, 12:03 PM

All day, the DSSD is my grail so I'm bias...

joleel7 · 14 February 2012, 12:35 PM

If possible keep the 233 and add a DSSD best of both World

rebel_1 · 14 February 2012, 12:48 PM

Don't trade the 233. It is the perfect PAM. 8 day PR, Date, Seconds, AM/PM ididactor, & GMT. What could the DSSD have on this model? Plus, the DSSD is just another Rolex, not that there is anything wrong with that!

I have actually just recently considered selling over half of my current collection (including my 351) to buy a 233.

DON'T DO IT!!

kilyung · 14 February 2012, 12:59 PM

I wouldn't do it but if you decide otherwise give me a shout.

No really.

CPD · 14 February 2012, 01:40 PM

I own the DSSD and a Panerai 312N.....DSSD is my "go to" watch. I f@#$in LOVE my DSSD!!

tray_18 · 14 February 2012, 06:59 PM

No

dalip · 15 February 2012, 02:32 AM

Great to see you've decided against it. The 233 is an incredible reference.

BaltimoreBrian · 15 February 2012, 03:27 AM

If I were to trade a 233 for DSSD, it would have to be for a vintage piece (DRSD) or something that is hard to find. Otherwise, would absolutely keep the 233 (especially if it had the dot) and start saving up for a DSSD to add to my collection. My 2 cents.
