I believe the gmt IIc gives you the clicky feel too if you like a rotational bezel, but again, its a different watch altogether as well..if you want a diver, you want a diver..period

bezel works differently when you compare the gmt2c to rolex diver watches (minute increments)...

Hey bro Otar, just wondering if you are able to see the laser etched coronet at 6 oclock for your DSSD? Its 5mm thick and I am thinking if it is possible to see. Let me know pls, thanks.

i don't think there is laser etched coronet for the Deep Sea. well, at least i can't see. i will try to post some pix tonight to confirm.

it's there; right above the "K" in LOCK.

shine a light through the crystal at differing angles... and you might see it.

try pointing your beam from 12 o'clock to 6 o'clock...

Because the glidelock is based on friction grip. cannot be helped, and pretty common.

If that is so, 2 TT SUB Cermaic also the same ? The centre link GOLD gets scratches too ?

I believe the coronet is there, just the thickness mite make it more difficult to spot. Lean the watch from left to right should make it easier, perhaps some beam of light will help, like how taxico suggested.

Any polished surface is a scratch magnet But there are some off the shelf polishing cloths that will help.

if you can so easily see the laser etching... it's probably a fake...!

Dear all bros,

just to check if there is a laser etched coronet for the V series submariner 16610. I cant seem to find mine .

thks alot

[Otar]

thanks bro! i followed your method and managed to spot it!

but it is so small and i actually cannot make out what it is if i hadn't seen pictures of it before. there are quite a number of nice images if you just google 'laser etched coronet'. there is even one picture taken using the Deep Sea. tried to take some pictures of it but not successful as i do not have any macro lens with me.

i believe so too. seen some pictures of the coronet taken with the 16610. just google 'laser etched coronet' and you shd be able to find many pictures.

[alvin4c]

thks bro, found it. using the same method...really strain my eyes...haha...

cheers

[trailblazer]

Glad you found it. From the photo, may be easier to spot if you snap leaning on some angle.

Its a very faint engrave and yes like taxico stated, if its too obvious its probably a fake.

[trailblazer]

thks bro, found it. using the same method...really strain my eyes...haha...

cheers

After straining the pocket, straining some eyes is worth it..LOL

My new found joy
