its interesting to see all DSSD registered so far here are G series
i am wondering what happened to the alphanumric (if any)
have a feeling rolex SA is clearing stock before continuing production
(G appears to be 2010 production series)

Maybe, as most properly G series in Mark 2 or 3. Wondering what is the changes will surface on the Dial if alphanumeric really comes in

[skydweller_sg]

sorry but what is mark 2 and mark 3?

Mark I is the first generation for new DSSD 116660, there is a small different in the design of the Dial compare to Mark II

The painted Rolex coronet has changed style to look more like the coronet on other Rolex dials.
The "E"s in "DEEPSEA" now have a shorter middle line in the "E".
The "S" in "SEA-DWELLER" has been changed from a "flat" S to a "round" one.
The "ft" font has been changed.
The "=" sign is not on Italic anymore but runs as two parallel lines.
There is now a larger gap between the ft and metres depth rating, aka "Gap Dial"

Mark III , heard is that the spacing of "=" is shift toward "12800ft" leaving more spacing for 3900m ( 12800ft = 3900m). See the different.

Mine bought on May is (G series , Mark II)

Which dial looks better...Mark 1,2 or 3?
Cant visualise with text

Mark I some may find it vintage for some purist
Mark II & III very slight different,
Overall if u only look at the whole dial u may not notice the difference

thanks for the photos, prefer the newer version with the literature spaced slightly further apart
mark1 dial looks rather 'cramped'

Thx bro.... we'll see in 10-15 years which is more collectable.... time for the hardcore Rolexers to add more DSSD to their collections

Actually the reason why I prefer the DSSD to a SUB is because
lesser in production which compare with various ss/yg/wg material.
There is only one solid design. I prefer and hope it keep that way as too much owner will make it a common watch. Don't u guys agreed?

[skydweller_sg]

agree its rare and unique
i can see 10 sub C date on the street before spotting a dssd
