Narrowed it down to...
1) DSSD or
2) YM1 Platinum (non Blue) This will be a watch I will wear on rotation, not for the safe. I like them both equally. Both the same price. Forum thoughts? AM. |

Since your avatar suggests you are a lady. I would suggest the YM I think it would rather stunning on a lady's wrist. Where as the DSSD might be a little over the top. Just my opinion. Good luck on which ever watch you do decide to purchase. please post once you do decide to purchase a watch.

Tough to say as only you can decide. I would personally say the YM I as the DSSD is a very large watch. Either way best of luck with your decision....Cheers,

Not knowing what your taste in watches are like but I can only go from my own experience. I have the DSSD and it's a very thick and top-heavy watch. Although I love it, it's the least comfortable watch in my Rolex stable.
But like someone mentioned, if Charlize can pull it off, maybe you can too. For sure you must try it on first. |

Im pretty sure AM isn't a lady, so if you think the DSSD isn't too top heavy and I presume you don't hence its in the mix then that would be my choice.

YM would definitely look good on a lady's wrist.

Another vote for the YM here. I tried one on a couple weeks ago (the blue dial) and was floored by how stunning it looked. For me at least, the DSSD is a bit too large. Admittedly, I haven't tried on the DSSD but I have a less than 6.5 wrist. So maybe try it on and be sure for yourself. You never know.

I want to say Deepsea but the the more logical option would be the YM. Gotta say, I saw a young lady wearing a white Exp2(new one) recently and it looked amazing her wrist.

DSSD, for the wrist presence and technology.
