My PM journey...

I started to get the PM bug. I already have a TT Bluesy SubC. What to get? I really like the 16618LB. That yellow gold with blue bezel and sunburst dial is just a stunner. But, I have the Bluesy. So, what else? I really like the YG GMT. The yellow gold and black bezel really stand out. It's really hefty also. Definitely a possibility. I also could really use the GMT function. But I already have an older Pepsi GMT. Then I said: "Self, you don't have a Daytona". So I started looking at the PM versions. After much mulling, teeth gnashing, wrist wringing, looking in various lighting conditions, I finally made a choice. I reached out to a trusted seller who I've dealt with before.



More when Fedex gets here tomorrow...
