When did they change the font of "Seadweller" and "Deepsea"? I much prefer the sans serif one.

question

Hey I have a question for all you DSSDers out there. I just recently purchased mine at a grey market dealer in ny. If you push down slightly on the insert the bezel moves slightly . My friend said that this happens because the new models have 4 ball bearings underneath the bezel . Can any of you shed some light on this . Is this normal ?
Thanks in advance.

Rubber B has release their rubber strap for our SDDS, replacing the Glidelock by a basic buckle, what a shame! And a red strap but no orange :(
Everest is soon having their rubber strap for our watch keeping the Glidelock...
Let's see how all those would work...
