The ultimate smack down: I think the POC might be a more intellectual fighter being a chronograph but the Rolex DSSD might be tougher with a much deeper WR rating and crystal thickness. I have a large multi head winder so I will make sure I put a B&R ceramic between the Rolex and Omega. |

New lug size and bracelet dimension really make that watch...along with the dial of course!
I hear that it needs to be fit properly and worn tighter then others Rolexes as it can be top heavy and move around when wearing. |

Great read, Mystro, thanks for all the great pics/comparisons - really enjoy detailed posts like this.
I concur: I got the call for my 126660 D-Blue last month (after only 3 weeks of waiting, thankfully) and haven’t been able to keep it off my wrist. I had the 116660 before and have found the tweaks to the bracelet/case/lugs on the 12 series to be perfection on my 7.25” wrist. I never understood all the complaints about “not fitting under the cuff” either, as it fits under the cuffs of every shirt/jacket/coat I wear. Similar to you, I’m 6’ 2” at 210 lbs; average wrists but I have big hands and though I love my 40/41mm references sometimes they feel a little small on me. Dig them all, but the new D-Blue is an absolute pleasure to wear and the wrist presence is undeniable. Different strokes for different folks - thankfully there are plenty of options for all of us to enjoy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
