New incoming! It’s a big one!!

My wife surprised me this morning with a white ceramic Daytona! She contacted my AD prior to Father’s Day and attempted to get it before then. It’s an amazing surprise “late” fathers days gift and early Birthday gift.

I’ve been waiting for almost three years for the watch. My collection now consists of a DJ 41, SD43, Hulk, Daytona 116520, and 116500LN.

Enough talk! Here are the pics

Congrats! I need to send my wife to the AD. It seems wives have a higher procurement percentage than the best of us combined!

I think you should ask her to help : ) I recently got my husband the Daytona after working with the AD for just about a week. There’s hope.

You are on to something... I’ll have my wife call my AD as I am the 5th person on the list for a Daytona and that was over 6 months ago. My number on the list is still the same.

OP - congratulations and wear it in good health.
