FWIW, when I was at Sentral a couple of weeks back, the salesperson mentioned he had a piece in stock although I did not ask to see it. Price was fairly competitive too.

Just curious since it is a 818 code (Philippines)

Not at the moment. Still enjoying the metal band but if I ever think of doing a make over, it'll be a Rubber B in black or blue just like this....

Title: Re: Rolex DSSD D-Blue
Post by: Calibr on April 22, 2015, 01:13:17 PM: Congrats!! Very nice indeed! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: Does it not come with the normal green box and outer white sleeves?
Also, I think Rolex looks better with its original bracelet..

Post by: ninja on April 22, 2015, 03:32:14 PM: Thank you for the kind words gentlemen
The DSSD does come with the standard Rolex double green box
The hard transparent plastic box shown above comes out of Switzerland as a double seal, unopened box much so similar to Patek Philippe as double seal in a maroon carton box

Still keeping those charming 3710/1A, Shag & Bumblebee? Btw, do you have the 5070 with you?

Thank you toypoodle san
Fortunately, no GST as it was a local purchase.
Yes the PP 3710/1A is still around and is now with my wife
Never got my hand on that elusive PP 5070 as I find the top premium price on it exorbitant and unacceptable ... even in the pre owned market

Post by: effendy131 on October 14, 2015, 09:29:35 AM: Can anybody advise if this is the rarest model now, compared to other Rolex steel sport model like Batman, Hulk or Daytona Black? Rarest model means the most difficult to find.

nothing is difficult to find
just a matter of price
