Fantastic reference. I think it's a greatly under-appreciated watch. Congrats!

I have the 1st version of the James Cameron (116660) and although its chonky, it is very comfortable with the thinner bracelet. Even if money meant nothing to me, I would not 'upgrade' it. Congratulations!

Agreed! This is only day two but this watch is officially comfortable, not qualified “for a a big watch” comfortable but plain old regular comfortable.

And I haven’t banged it on any door frames yet!

For years I wanted a DSSD. People warned of size and comfort but I have mine for 4 years now and it has been amazing.

116660 is the coolest of the DSSD lineup. Among the little differences, I especially like that the bracelet end links protrude past the case lugs. Same as they do on the 116600 which I also own and love.
