the most unloved Rolex diver?
Arrived a couple of weeks ago after only one month wait. Very pleased to have a 126660 black dial back in the fold to keep the Cameron company. I love this watch, for me it is perfect. It may be chunky and thick but then it mirrors its owner!
+1 Love ;-) lucky that not everyone like the same
Most importantly is you, me and many others like this watch. Of course it is not for everyone, nonetheless it is a great real pro-diving watch.
For now congratulations to you and I wish you plenty good times with it.

Obviously you have a preference as you purchased the Rolex
but I am interested in your thoughts on the new Omega Ultra Deep. Compare and contrast?
Cheers from a brother --- a huge but totally comfortable, VERY fun, and highly technical Rolex....hard not to love it! ;-)
As you are askng: yes, it is ... 😃
Joke aside, I was very positively surprised of it back then when it came out and saw it on a wrist.
A strong diver 👍

It's a brilliant piece and I remember being in awe of it when it came out in the late 2000s! Enjoy!
What happens with your wrist time between the 126660 black-dial version and JC blue-dial version?
Which do you find yourself gravitating towards more? Or are they about equal?
Personally, although I enjoy owning slightly different variations of several watches, that wouldn't work me with the 126660. I had the 116660 black dial for 12 years (and found it perfectly comfortable on my little wrist), but I hardly ever wore it because I tended to prefer other black-dial dive watches with aluminum bezel inserts (16660 SD, etc.). I liked the looks of the 116660 Deep Blue and knew I'd wear it more than the black-dial version, but I was too lazy to get one. Then, In 2020, I finally decided to get the 126660 JC, which I REALLY enjoy wearing often (love that dial!), and I sold the 116660 black dial to someone who'd give it more wrist time. So I'm curious how you approach having both dial versions of the DSSD.
