It is not uncommon for people to announce every step of the process of getting a new watch, including the order, the wait, the arrival, the picking up, the unboxing, the putting on, the first wrist shot, and shots in every conceivable setting.

We're fanatics here!

We can't get enough.

We participants and we're voyeurs.

We're as hedonistic as it can get when it comes to watches.

Come on! How long have you been here?

Haven't you ever noticed that Leica owners are very much the same?

You have both versions of the DSSD? That's just plain greedy!

Congrats!

Congrats!

The pic of the DSSD besides the DSSD D-Blue makes for a great comparison. Personally, I'd have to go with the DSSD D-Blue. Quite a unique and beautiful dial!

Why post such a negative comment when these threads are about the excitement of the OP's new watch? We all love the experience of an addition to collection.

OP - congratulations !!!!!!
