Day Date 40

Can’t believe I finally got this watch. Been thinking about it for a long time and got a deal from the AD I just couldn’t pass up.
I have to say it is absolutely incredible on the wrist and I don’t think it will be going anywhere for a very long time :)

Congrats! I love the ones with the Lume. of course more pics...

My problem is that I like so many models of the DD40, I can't settle down one which one...

Congrats. That is my favorite configuration dial of the YG DD40. In person its amazing the way the light plays with the motif dial. Been enjoying mine for over 12 months now. Enjoy yours for many years to come. This is a watch that will never leave your collection.

Thanks for sharing, It's a great piece. I feel that until you get one of these watches you don't realize how truly awesome they are.

Same here. Congrats on the beautiful DD! I tried on the chocolate dial and the SA stated that if I bought it then I could ask for any watch since a list does not exist.
