It has been quit a while since I wanted to get myself a DSN, any Reppamfan should have one!
The price kind of always hold me back compared to the quality Pam you can get for much cheaper and a little modding, but more than the price there was the WU issue!
I don't like this kind of payment and in France you don't have them at every corner (if you have to loose 2 hours just to send a payment that is a hassle).
So the other day a member at RG was selling his DSN 240 for about half the price of a new one, and I paid him with Paypal so quick and easy for me! I had to jump in!
I'm not going to do a review of the watch as one already exist and made by the former owner of mine, and it would be useless!

Nevertheless I will make a few comment and add new pics:
The +:
- The 240 is only repped by DSN so if you want one only one other solution: The GEN!
- Ti watch: extremly light!
- Automatic Pam: the gen as a Valjoux 7750 P1, and the rep an Asian 7750 P1: close enough (Actually if you look at it most of the rep do not have the same movement as the Gen, even the copied movement)
- The brown dial is awesome (already own a 036)
- Fabulous Lume
The -:
- That case has nothing more that most of the other Ti case (and I own 6)
- The CG: just don't know what to think about it (anyway not classified in the + area)
So basically, I'm glad I didn't pay full price: It's definetly not worth it!
Super out of the box rep: I say NO!
Except for the Lume, I wanted to change my 177h (got it from Trevor) to get a DSN, I won't! It's a sandwich dial so easy to relume and that's what I'll do.
For all the reason above, this one is my 1st and last DSN, But I have to say:
I LOVE IT!
Now here are the pic of my new baby:
A wrist shot:
A lum shot:
A familly shot (from brown to black)
Sorry for the bad quality of the pics, my wife took the camera today so I took them with my mobile.
