Incoming!
A month ago, I picked up my DSSD JC and told my AD I’d like to be on the list for the blue-dial WG Daytona, thinking I’d have a year to save up. Yesterday, to my SA’s and my shock, I got the call. Still shaking from writing the check and trying to figure out what to sell to finance it! But it’s a once-in-a-lifetime — for me, anyway.

Still chuckling ... but it hurts to laugh. A lot of outflow, indeed.

Thanks, everyone, for the congrats.

congrats on your new great timepiece!

Why are you writing a check? You should use credit card and get the point equal 2% cash back unless you get 2% discount for paying cash.

Great watch, Eric...love that combination!

Couldn’t happen to a nicer guy. After the shock wears off you will be happy you pulled the trigger on this one, particularly in view of new release Daytona rumors.
