Hello!
Well done on the DD-II!
One small thing - did you buy the watch new or used?
The reason I as is because the BOX is WRONG. That is the box for a Steel or TT piece.

A DD would come in a larger box. Perhaps the dealer swapped it?

I just wanted to let you know.

Great watch however!

WHAT HAPPENED to the porsche? Did you sell it? The S is a very special model!

Changed the boxter for a C2S. It has back seats that allow you to comfortably fit your briefcase lol.

I bought the watch brand new from an authorized Rolex dealer (listed on rolex website). The watch was taken from the showcase and put in a box. Didn't know there were specific boxes. I actually purchased a date-just II stainless steel 2 weeks ago (my brother's now) and it came in a smaller box than my Day-Date II. Weird.

I'll mention that to them next time. Thanks.

Looking at that box it does look to be the large box My milguass is in a much smaller SS box. It looks OK to me
