Great Thread Darth! I picked me up a DSSD last week and havent been able to take it off!

 

[LondonDSSD]

What a fantastic thread DarthAlex , one of the most indepth and useful on the DSSD I've seen! Did you do the Part Two - I can't find it and I'd really like to see your comparison of Reps with Gen and also your pearl modification. Thanks. Chris

 

[Rick914]

heres the pearl mod link bud, some of the links are still broke since they updated the server. Great info in this thread!

Great post with great pics How can I put the official DSSD member in my signature?

 

[DarthAlex]

There is an image available that you can add, just copy the image and host it with photobucket or some other host and point to it in html in your signature.

Does any of the REP DEEPSEA have the rolex etch at the 6 position? Not the type that stares you in the face when your not even looking for it, but you have to tilt at an angle to see it properly? Thanks.

 

[DarthAlex]

Are you refering to the etching on the crystal? If so most of them have this and it is more visible than gen but not all that easy to see due to the curvature of the crystal.

 

[drabbits]

Freaken awesome Alex! Man, does your back hurt from the strain of your big balls? :lol1:
just started tearing apart my rep. DSSD this evening, looking to replace movement and make it watertight-ish.
I'll be looking for more of your know how to guide me.
gnarly post Mr. Darth!

 

[DarthAlex]

Most of these prove to be water tight but you never really know till you test it. Grease the seals with silicone grease and check to make sure there are no pinched gaskets and you should be good to go to at least 200 Meters. If you have doubts about the HEV do the epoxy mod.
