I prefer the brushed bracelet over the PCL anytime. The watch looks great...

Brushed looks MUCH better! Have you considered getting the case brushed as well?

The dial is stunning my friend, and the brushed band is a plus. Also the fact that whitegold is similiar to stainless steel, you just got yourself a "whitegold" daytona.
However, the all brushed band doesn't seem to fit very well with the polished lugs in my eyes. I would brushed the lugs too..

Outstanding, sir! A steel Daytona that radiates an elegant tool-watch persona, much like the great vintage references.
Just wish Rolex would produce a st.steel Daytona just as you have yours custom-configured...but I know they won't, of course. Best, Adam |

I forgot to thank a very special person. I'm a quadrapalegic (paralyzed from the chest down) and need help with just about everything. My dad understands my love for Rolex watches and will do anything to help me out. Fathers day was spent driving 1hr and 30mins each way to have my Daytona worked on. I couldn't ask for a better dad!!
