I wear some chunky watches but nothing quite like the 47mm Submersibles. The Ploprof sits find on my wrist. I was too lazy to take of picture of them but they are in this pic of my divers with HEVs.* The DSSD is pretty chunky too.

Yep...very similar taste. Very very nice collection. I own or owned 3 of the exact same watches. Sold the DSSD to get a red/anniversary sea dweller. After 10+ years of owning DSSD, my OCD couldn't take the "original escape etc" around the dial. Would be the perfect watch for me with just that brushed steel ring and no script. LOve the size and technology. I even looked into having someone remove the script. Apparently it is laser engraved so...No dice...no one reputable would touch it. Decided to go back to a SD for a few reasons. Most of which...The 5-digit SD was my first "nice" watch in 2003 and the one that kicked off the madness. The modern red SD is about the perfect watch for me. Proportions are about perfect on it I think.

Love that 116600! That will be a "modern" one that collectors chase one day. I almost dumped the DSSD for that one when it came out.

Ploprof is a beast...it messes with my OCD/brain for a week or so until my brain gets used to the crown being on the other side. The case work (polished beveled edges and corners of the case/shape, side of bezel, caseback, etc.) & bracelet on it are about the nicest I've seen on a sports watch. Always wear it fishing or when on boats. OEM PAM bracelet is pretty legit too.

Tudor is starting to really put out some nice stuff. That fixed bar-lugged, blue-dialed diver that won the award last year is pretty cool. Kind of reminiscent of the military Sub. Also love the pelagos with the red text, chronos, and that one that looks like the Rolex 1655 (wish Rolex would remake that one..I'd sign up for it).

Nice reps
