Incoming.......may be an outgoing reference for Rolex though

Well here it is. Somewhat of a spontaneous purchase. Don't see it in my AD's showcase too often but there it was singing loud and clear to me. I realize that Rolex will likely release a new model one of these days but I will enjoy this one while we continue to wait. I don't think I'll have any issues finding it a new home if need be. Who knows, maybe the new Daytona will have characteristics that don't appeal to me. Maybe it will be 2K more. Who knows. I do though that this is a fantastic reference and I love the way it feels on the wrist. Super comfortable and unbelievably accurate. Thanks for looking

Beautiful. I always think black dial is the way to go on this one. Great move! Enjoy it!

Nice. You can bet a new release will be more expensive. $2K is probably a good bet.

Lovely pics. Really don't think we will see a SS Ceramic this soon but if so it will be 2-3K more at least and will be an absolute devil to get hold of.

You did real well and many of us here would jump on that watch in a heartbeat if displayed in their local AD.

Congrats and wear it in good health!!

Congrats! It looks great on you. I did the same thing last month. Wasn't on a particular mission to purchase it but thought if I ran into one at an AD, now with the bonus of a 5 year warranty, I would do it. Pricing is better in Canada but Florida is a bit warmer this time of year
