Incoming for dad
Just came in yesterday, big thanks to davidsw

My dad is all about two tone, and he's always loved the Daytona. We decided to sub out his bluesy (no pun intended) for the blue dial two tone Daytona.

Dial is gorgeous in person.

This will be his weekend watch, I plan to surprise him with a blnr in April for his birthday!

Red hands really pop on this one!

Read in another thread that you are a blue dial guy, my dad is big on blue as well.

He's very excited about this one for sure.

Well done Dmitrii! It's great to own a Rolex. But it might be even better to gift one.

Awesome. Damn I wish my son will do that for me! Though I'll have to wait, he's only 2 days old.
