Hats off to a very cool dad.

Looks amazing all brushed and with the WG dial. When I had my Daytona I had been tempted to do the exact same thing and would have definately kept it if I had done but sadly the cost of doing it wasn't economical. Once again, looks great.

Chuck - your watches look amazing! Love what you've done with the brushed case, PCL's, and bezel!

Here's to your friend Doug for the bezel and to your Dad for his support of your passion!!!
