The Deepsea is probably the most controversial sports model that Rolex produced. It draws extreme views from both sides of the camp, those who love it will defend it down to the last feet(12800). Those who do not feel for it will put it down and express their views passionately.
The deepsea is not for everybody. But if you like it enough, the size, weight, built, thickness, over-engineering and the bracelet will only be value adds for you. If it does not sing to you, it will only be a chunk of overpriced steel and I have heard worst about it.
Rolex in my view has succeeded. Producing a watch that draws attention like no other modelling it's line up.
one way to silence the critics of dssd is to bring all rolex sports model down to 3,900m below sea level
by then only one watch will still be ticking - the rest all RIP (not so much of resting in peace, but literally RIPped apart)
No need to push it so far. Might make you look stupid when it's time for you to sell it (or buy another Rolex) someday.

I thought it'll be good to share with the members that Pita Oceana is 5,000m water resistant compared to DSSD. Technomarine Abyss has a depth rating of 10,900m. If i'm not mistaken, there're another 2-3 watches that beat DSSD's depth rating.
But of course, if you're comparing to other Rolex models...DSSD beats them no doubt.

its not 'pushing too far' to bring all rolex watches to 3,900m and see which one survives
that's the whole point of the dssd - it crushes all other rolex models, anytime anyday
why will one want to bring rolex watches underwater 3900m for ?
to prove that its the king of all Rolex models ah ?
Put it off for years due to the tapering bracelet. Finally got one & if you wear it snug (easy with the genius clasp), the bracelet turns out to be a non-issue. Comfortable daily-wear for the past few weeks...
