Taking bets
This was just delivered. DavidSW strikes again. Plastics all removed.....I think. Feel free to take bets on how many months go by before I find one that was missed. The older I get, the better those stickers are at hiding.

Congratulations Chad! Looks Great and I know you must like the way it feels on your wrist!

3-Months is my guess...

Congrats Chad! Love the Polar. Underrated indeed and a nice change to have a white dial in the pro model line up.

Yes. I have the white dial Daytona 116520, but that's a lot of flash. The Exp2 is a lot more toned down. I like it.

Congrats and welcome to the club!

Wait, don't you have a platona? We could have done a 1 month exchange program.
