Is BK's DSSD worth the 450+ pricetag?

the dssd is shit. buy a sea dweller. if you want something special get an rsh mod.

BK's DSSD or the DSSD in general?

We are talking about a "rep" all of which are flawed and, in the case of the DSSD, those flaws have been examined in detail.

I could pick any popular brand of watch, say the rep is "shit" and probably make a valid argument for it. IMO, the DSSD is better than most and BK's is better still for a reasonable price.

BK's DSSD has no difference from the cartel except for BK dw and his QC..Is this a reason to give over 150$ more??Especially if you are going to go for a modded project!!

I had a 21j DSSD for a while and have to say that to this day, it was still one of the most solid and gen feeling reps I had.

The v7 has better insert and dial but the case construction and dimensions are better in noob..Trust me i had two uppermodded based on the V7 and sold both due to the bad case shape

While some N-factory reps are better than others, all of its reps have good quality fit and finish. I know there are other good makers out there, but n-factory is a pretty decent bet for a well made rep. They do a good job with rollues and I think their DSSD is convincing. It's just a little too chunky for my taste.

So we agree to make the best DSSD we need a Noob watch with a v7 dial and maybe a v7 insert? Then send it all to PBdad and make him combine it...

Any point of buying that noob from BK? Cant Pbdad do it all?

You got it well.
Except the awesome QC my opinion is that you can take this watch cheaper anywhere esle..
But if you want a classic TW sub or classy modding, then BK is the man !!!
I am sure he will be back soon with new offerings !!

This is the problem.........if youre gonna have to send the watch out for modding, why buy a BK DSSD? Just buy one from the cartel or whomever & send it to Pbad for the mods.

Would be a different story if BK modded the pearl, etc before sending it out. $450 or whatever it costs w/o the needing mods is ridiculous!

Where can you get just the V7 dial and/or insert and what would it cost to put them all together? Damn, I need to learn how to take these things apart myself.
