Icon14 New 178343 TT DateJust 31mm 24-diamond bezel on the way!

At every AD I went, all I ever saw with the new 24-diamond bezel with an oyster band. And I really like jubilee better, so I decided to order one new from DavidSW.

Finally, its in the FedEx to arrive shortly, but David was nice enough to send me these pics to over.

How do you think it compares to the chocolate face they highlight in all the ads?

I can't wait to see the MOP face in person!

Suzy

As the lone male so far in this thread giving an opinion on your choice, I know my wife would love the watch you picked. A classic without bling overload! Can't lose with DavidSW either - he's great.

I will do my best with the wrist shots once it arrives! Then I can finally have something to post on the 'what you wearing' threads! :D

I know we don't have a macro lens for our camera though, and I thought it best to ask David for some close-ups pre-shipping.


Lisa---Don't think so on the borrowing for now. I know you've got a pretty collection yourself though, so I'm sure you'll find SOMETHING to wear.

Hi! I have to do better with the wrist shot pics, but here is the first go. I had problems with the diamonds glaring back at the camera in the sun.
