I'd flip your Sub for a DSSD and keep the Daytona.

The DeepSea (Which I own) and the New Daytona (Which I do not own) are the only two Modern Rolex watches I would buy...

I would keep the Daytona...

Get rid of the other watches...

And add the DeepSea...

Hell, no! Then you'd have two divers and no Daytona.

If anything, sell off the Sub for the SDDS. But, I'd suggest the SD43 instead. I can't get over how ungainly the SDDS looks on the wrist.

I would add the deepsea if you can but don’t part with the Daytona.
Deepsea Blue is my most favorite Rolex but it’s a lot easier to get than a daytona so don’t do it!

I wouldn’t trade 116500 for DSSD. Better save more to fund for the new watch.

I would definitely not do that. Add a DSSD if you must.

Your wrist doesn’t look big enough to pull off wearing the DSSD. On a smaller wrist, I think it looks gaudy and a bit goofy. Go with the 126600, which look proportional on any wrist

If your heart is really set on it I will gladly procure a new DSSD and trade it for your Daytona C :-)

Jokes aside, don't do this trade.

i found the deepsea in much better proportion when on
the rubber band strap.

Daytona looks stunning but DSSD is great as well. I will choose daytona over DSSD

Move the Sub C maybe for the SD43 50Th.
I tried a JC DSSD at my AD and it was huge and heavy .
Plus the red text is nicer than the green imho on the sd43.

The Daytona never did anything for me . It’s a Beautiful Watch being displayed .
I would keep it and trade the SubC or just go outright and purchase the DSSD .
FYI the DSSD sits better if you have a flat wrist . My D Blue wears fantastic on. 7.5 flat wrist
