First post . . .w/Daytona

Sup fellas, been following TRF for a while, and decided finally to make my first post.

I picked up this up a few months back. Wasn't planning on getting one with the diamonds, but after trying it on, like it better than the one without, and surprisingly the price difference was minuscule. I know a lot of you guys are not a fan of the bling, but I think it works quite well with the TT and black dial. What you guys think??

Welcome to TRF and congratulations with that wonderful daytona.
I am also not a bling person, but it's not right in your face with your daytona, so it works well I think

Normally I'm not a fan of bling, but for some reason the diamonds look good on that watch. Congrats.

Thanks guys for all the positive responses . . .

Out of curiosity why the dislike for diamonds on watches in general? If done correctly can make the watch more unique.

Diamonds on a Day Date bezel or lugs is a bit too much imho, but on a dial I really love it. Yours is a beautiful combination , I would be checking the time every 5 minutes.
