Made the call (didn't get one)

Was thinking about getting a Daytona for a little bit, my AD didn't give me much hope, so made a call to my Grey Dealer, and they had one in stock. Very happy, very blessed, picked it up a couple of hours ago (pic isn't showing the Rose Gold for some reason but included a pic for reference as well)







And here were the contenders (there were a few that I did not take any pictures of)

You'll never get a perfect photo of the ever rose gold. It always seems to wash out. In person though, that watch is a banger Supreme. Congrats.

Thank you! Yes, however one of the forum members suggested that indoor pictures, not in direct sunlight will help bring out the color (not sharing their username as they PMd me so respecting that). I will try this today.

It really was so much fun, and at times stressful choosing which one, the Paul Newman was definitely a strong contender!
