So I popped into my local AD to enquire about either a D-Blue or BLNR. They had a black DSSD which looked sublime on the wrist, but I really like the Blue.

So, she showed me the wait list for both, D-Blue was 2/3 year estimate, BLNR a year or so!

I'm going to ring a few ADs but presume everyone will have done this anyway, and have their name on a few lists. Given I don't have a relationship in terms of previous buying, do I simply have to suck it up? I'm not interested in paying significantly over list from the usual sites.

I've got a black DSSD in my collection and it's the one I wear the most by far.

another DSSD here, but i am not sure what the question is... do you like the D-blue enough to wait or not?

I'm the opposite, it's been 3yrs now and I think it's going to have to go!

Ha ha!

What gave me away? :-)

I just don't gravitate towards it when deciding what I want to wear, so maybe it should go!

Tried it with both types of Rubber B (clasp version most comfortable for me)

Yes it's got to be the blue.

you'll have to wait then. It really is either that or pay the premium.

I had a DSSD on my wrist whilst buying an engagement ring last year, it was a toss up between the two, it's a lovely thing.

I went for the engagement ring in the end, thinking it was probably a better bet for my continued wellbeing.
