That watch is spectacular! The contrast of the red hands on the meteorite dial really makes it
look great. Congratulations!

That's my favorite dial on a Daytona, and the only one I would ever own in that model. Wondrous!

The most beautiful Daytona in existence. I don't even have a price in my catologue for that, the white gold black dial is $33,000 Cdn (pretty much on par with USD).

I read an interesting post (I don't have th thread, sorry) about how the meteorites are cut and attached to a brass substrate to form the dial.

One of a kind, truely out of this world!

Congrats!!

Chris
