Well worth the wait
My only problem is that I’ve not taken the Daytona off yet

Yeah here they are next to each other , the lugs look a little slimmer but the bezel colour seems to be the same to me

That’s an epic pair of incomings! How does the WG Daytona on OF wear compared to the GMT on jubilee? Can we get some side by side pictures?

To be honest I can’t take my eyes off the Daytona , both feel really comfortable but obviously the White Gold makes the Daytona a little heavier

Gorgeous! I thought the Daytona would wear much smaller than the GMT but here the 2 look quite comparable in size.
