Congratulations.
Funnily enough, earlier this year I picked up an overseas dual time then a few days later got the call for a Daytona.

Btw, my VC gets a lot more wrist time. It is amazing.

Oooof congrats. The two-tone Daytona with white dial is slowly starting to grow on me.

Thank you! This is my first TT watch and I am really liking it so far. Not sure why I always thought TT had an "old man" touch to it, but then again I thought the same about the Datejust Jubilee until few years ago



Thanks, it certainly was! Already thinking about what to add next. I think I may need to force myself divert my attention to some other hobbies for a while...



Thanks! Which model are you considering? The Overseas line are fantastic watches and wear more comfortably on the wrist than a Royal Oak on a bracelet. I suspect my Overseas will get a lot more wrist time, given that the RO is a scratch magnet anyway.

I just hope they will bring out some more color options for the rubber strap soon - they had a white and orange color strap but those were limited and apparently you can't get them anymore.
I’ve been looking at the dual time and the chrono. Since I’m not a huge Daytona fan, I was drawn to VC when looking to add one, but now I like them both but I already own a GMT…either way I suspect a VC is in my future!

While I've never been a fan of two-tone watches, I remember seeing a huge ad of the two-tone Daytona with the black dial in Singapore hanging across ION Mall on Orchard Road. For reasons I cannot explain, it has never left my mind for all these years. I thought it was one of the most beautiful variations of the Daytona. Fast forward a couple years and a few watches later, I finally decided to put down my name and received a call last week that they had received the two-tone but with a white dial. Stopped by the AD, tried it on and sealed the deal. The white dial adds a very clean and elegant aestethic to the watch and I will keep it for now, especially since it's summer. I might switch it out for the black dial later down the road.
congrats! the TT white dial Daytona is IMO the most beautiful watch ever made.
It's such a baroque piece

That’s what Overseas comes with, along with a metal bracelet.
