I have 2 SDs. I am thinking of selling one SD and then buying one of these:

http://blog.perpetuelle.com/index.ph...any-condition/

It even makes the DEEPSEA look like a flat Cellini watch ....

Got some questions though:
1) Is CX Swiss military a reputable company?
2) Any one here as seen or had personal experience with this watch?
3) What kind of resale am I looking at?

Thanks,

HL65 · 11 March 2011, 09:57 PM

Personally--No. I think that is one ugly watch IMHO. Sorry but that is my feeling! Keep your SD or trade for a Sub!

nauticajoe · 11 March 2011, 10:04 PM

Keep the SD. Save up for the watch.

MURRAY · 11 March 2011, 10:07 PM

The top view looks cool, but the side view loses it's luster....It sits over an inch tall right? The center of gravity and where the the bracelet sits would fit odd IMHO...but if you like it go for it.....

Andad · 11 March 2011, 10:08 PM

Why not just strap the two SD's one on top of the other.

They would then be just as thick as the CX, be good for 8000 ft and you would have a GMT function.

Resale on the CX down the track might be good if you find someone who has a boat.

Puffy · 11 March 2011, 10:09 PM

Keep and save

Never. Ever. Sell. A Seadweller. For. That. Other. Watch.

Fiery · 11 March 2011, 10:29 PM

Even the DSSD is stretching the boundaries of what one can wear comfortably all day long. That CX thing is not really nice, not really wearable and makes no sense at all IMHO. If you want an extreme watch that works 12 kms underwater, check out some oil filled pieces instead.

dddrees · 11 March 2011, 10:31 PM

Nope

joeychitwood · 11 March 2011, 10:36 PM

I'll be the first to say that if I had two Sea Dwellers, I'd trade one for this watch. What else would I wear the next time I dive to 20,000 feet. I like it.

Thanks,

If you got to ask that question on a Rolex watch forum most will say no,and I must say I agree with them.

DCgator · 11 March 2011, 11:07 PM

You'd need a tow truck to take this watch home from the store. :D

I'd keep the SD if I were you.

Paulie 50 · 11 March 2011, 11:13 PM

Only if you fall over and bang your head. Otherwise, NO.

dicin · 11 March 2011, 11:26 PM

newsboy · 11 March 2011, 11:29 PM

Man thats ugly SD everytime

Randy · 11 March 2011, 11:44 PM

BUY a DSSD

GradyPhilpott · 11 March 2011, 11:47 PM

I wouldn't touch a Swiss Military watch with a ten foot pole and I wouldn't part with a so much as a Timex to fund one.

AK40DJ50 · 11 March 2011, 11:47 PM

Would not be my choice.

StarSovereign · 11 March 2011, 11:48 PM

That's a stupid watch...

If you have too many Dwellers, then maybe something else? A Blancpain Fifty Fathoms?

RoliSubMan · 12 March 2011, 12:51 AM

Do u seriously believe what happened in that sclip was real....

sell me your SD for 500.00 so you can fund your new purchase.

Foxglove · 12 March 2011, 12:55 AM

heck no.

rolexertion · 12 March 2011, 01:12 AM

Seriously, I wouldn't sell a Casio to 'fund' that monstrosity, let alone a SD. I wouldn't wear it if it were a gift. Keep your Rolexes.

JimSnyder · 12 March 2011, 02:00 AM

No, no, no!

SaddleSC · 12 March 2011, 02:03 AM

There are very few things that I would consider trading my Sea Dweller for (food, shelter, water) and the watch you have shown is certainly not one of them.

However...in the end you gotta do what is right for you! Good luck with your decision.
