Incoming grail

I’ve been on the hunt for the right combo of a platinum watch with a dark blue dial for quite a while. I stumbled across this Day Date II with the Blue wave dial and knew this was the one. It feels amazing and the dial is absolutely stunning.




I got it Thursday and love everything about it. Thank you all for helping me feel less crazy about this absurd hobby of ours.

That’s an amazing dial. And by looking at the scenery behind your excellent photos, the wave design seems quite fitting. Almost like it was made for you.
