Very nice. I just turned 40 myself last month. My wife wanted to make it a celebration since it was a milestone birthday but I told her not to make a big deal about having a party. So instead she knew that I have been eyeing a new watch so she surprised me with a Sub Date for my birthday. Also, she baked a small cake and we had just my immediate family over. But congrats on the birthday and that cake looks good enough to wear, lol.

Super nice gesture. And mega congrats on a milestone birthday!

Beautiful cake, but shouldn't it be a Daytona?

Um, yeah, is that the Cake Boss. I heard someone mention both. So my best answer is that: I think so. I can find out though.

Yep - one and the same. Some other poster showed a Rolex cake and he lives in Bergen County but to be honest as cool as the cake was, it wasn't up to this standard - so I figured it was The Cake Boss !

Congrats again !

Ha. I am working on keeping a watch for more than 40 days, let alone 40 years.

Looks like a fake to me; I thought we didn't discuss fakes. The hand are wrong and the finish is way to crude to be a Rolex. I suspect on the other hand it tastes a lot better than most Rolexes. Congratulations and happy birthday.
