So, I had these other watches that didn't get any wrist time and I traded them in for a Sea Dweller (M SN). I'm really liking this watch and I think I like it better than the Deep Sea (no offense DSSD owners I still think that's a cool watch). Anyway, I need to post some pics soon but haven't been able to stop eyeballing it long enough to pick up the camera.

OK here's the pics.

Also, can you guys let me know if you think everything looks to be on the up and up? I took it to an AD and they said everything looked good but wouldn't "certify it". Not sure what thats about but figured I'd get second and third opinions as I have a chance to return this if needed. The only thing I thought was weird was that the dot on the bracelet is missing but I wasn't sure if Rolex did away with this on some models or if that link was just replaced. The bezel is very hard to turn compared to my SubC, is that normal? Thoughts?

I should also mention that I have the original paperwork, boxes and warrantee card. The serial numbers match and the model number is correct. I guess the movement could have been switched out but I doubt it. It does seem to be running a bit fast however. I might send it back to RSC as it has a month left on the warrantee.
