Show us your Paul Newman Daytona

Calling all Paul Newman Daytona owners. . Let's get this thread started.

Here is the moment that inspired me to buy a Paul Newman Daytona. Two years ago I saw this one at Asprey in London.



Here is mine.





Enjoy

The first pic is as close as I've come to a Rolex PN, Burlington Arcade in London.
The second pic is as close as I'll come to owning one, a Tudor Big Block.

Just awesome pics! A PN is one of the real grails for me, the other would be one of the old deep seas.

All of you PN owners are lucky guys!

Happy for you, even if I don't own one (simple because it is too expensive for my wallet, not that I don't like it)

Sorry I don't have a Paul Newman, but I did try one on at the Burlington Arcade in London, a great place for watch enthusiasts.

Christopher,

I'm impressed.

I can see you put a lot of time and effort into your signature.
