Damn sexy watch and very underrated. If I could afford one, it would be my beater. I'd swim, ski, cook, bbq, work, fix machines wearing this. Congratulations man.

Not an idiotic move at all, sir! It was a stroke of genius. Looks awesome.

Congratulations, a great looking classic, you’ll have to keep this one.
I’m currently interested in a very nice condition piece..

Umm idk about that. My F serial 16600 that has 100% never been polished looks just like that. All the 5 digit 16600 look kinda thin. Numerous posts on it.

Nothing wrong with that, lug nicks are from the strap coming on and off. A great watch, I’d leave it well alone. My one and only Rolex, z series 16600 and I love it.

This is kinda making me regret trading in my 16600 yesterday and "upgrading" to the 116660, which will be here Wednesday.

The Ref. 16600 will always be in my heart, but the DSSD will be on my wrist.

I’ve never handled a deep sea but am curious

I think the SD is great and fairly under value these days.

Very happy to have one in the collection. Love the extra heft.

Yep, I’m not sure why out of the 5 digits the sea dweller lags behind the gmts. I think though as time progresses they will shoot up.

Congrats! Great looking watch!

I might be a bit biased as mine is a K-serial 16600 too
