My New Daytona - In light of the Bashers!

[bluemartinifan]

WOW - I was so brave to choose a Daytona after reading all the
Daytona bashing...
The Daytona stimulates alot of passionate debate, criticism and praise. GMT's and Subs (own both and really like both) don't receive a fraction of the criticism the Daytona receives ie:

• get a Speedy instead and save $7k - I owned a Speedy and really liked it but the Daytona oozes wrist presence
• hard to tell the time - how many times per day do you look at your watch not to tell the time? Buy a beautiful maxi dial sub if you require dial legibility - this is not a problem for me - now I may not wear the watch on a search and rescue mission - or 300 feet under the sea - but I see it just fine in the office, car or plane
• the polished links will scratch - yep and this bracelet is the nicest Rolex bracelet I have ever had on my wrist - by far
• It's not big enough - it feels, sits and looks perfect to me (I am old school)
• $10k+ and no date??? my eyes don't see dates well, I have never been able to find the date on my meters first 5513

So the above is said mostly for fun and to stimulate the debate.
I may not die with this watch - but I sure da hell am enjoying it
