I have notice that the steel part that is holding the pearl on the bezel is a bit out of shape at the left side. So i would like to seek advice from all bros here whether is it ok or not? And other than this is there any other problem with any of the watches above?

Thank you and wish all bros here have a happy new year!!!

They all look nice to me, except the pearl as you pointed out on the DSSD. That's what QC photos are for, so don't feel bad about asking for a different watch.

So the DSSD indeed have a problem at the bezel and not because of angle for the photo or the lighting?

Yeah, 7 in a row but not all for myself............

The DSSD looks like the one I bought from Trevor and in the QC pic the folding section of the clasp turned inwards just like your pic.

I assumed it was just not closed completely but on the wrist with the folding part against the wrist the outer part of the clasp hangs around 6mm clear of the bracelet.

I don't know if it is a common problem with the DSSD or if it is just Trevors stock.

A little careful bending has improved but not completely solved the issue on mine.

I have just send an e-mail to the dealer to request a change for another piece of the Rolex DSSD because of the flaw that i have notice. Meanwhile, i'm still waiting for the QC photos of the other 2 watches that is in this order. Hopefully everything goes well for me.

nice to see that pearls are centered again on new watches, despite that bent pearl surround which i would not accept, it seems for quite awhile every single pearl on a new rollie sub was misaligned,

Yeah, I'm very satisfied with the quality of this watch. I have order them from Trevor, a TD at this forum.Cost is at USD 308 excluding shipping fee and it is said to be fitted with Swiss ETA 2671 movement.

+1 I wouldn't accept that dented pearl surround either. What the next one be severely misaligned, lol.

Hopefully the next one will come good as the current one look too obvious for me........

Very good pickups, I'd say -- even though the DSSD has that slight dent. Good luck & very impressive watches, esp. the Subs!

I see, actually i also thinking of the higher risk it is if all the watches is shipped together but before i order, he did assure me that if the package is lost or seized by custom, he will resend me the watches without any additional charges. Hopefully all will goes well for me.

Pec got it, its the weight and size of box its gonna take to ship it to you, this will raise customs awareness of the package as they may be interested to take a peek at it and losing that many at once (if taken by customs) will hurt, but if the seller is giving you a delivey gurantee well I guess your good. Good luck.:sub4me:
