My current collection .... pics

Oops, EDIT:
my post below is a reply to a question by Spare .....

I decided to buy it when I saw a guy in a cafe wearing one. It looked amazing on him. So I asked my AD and got it 3 weeks later.

When I first put it on it looked really stunning, nothing like my other watches. It looks kind of glamorous and dressier too. It feels more formal, perhaps it has something to do with the slim case, it definitely wears smaller than a GMT or Sub.

The blue dial is pretty special too. It is a nice change to my other pieces. Hey, it’s a PM Daytona and that almost speaks for itself

Great collection, John. Thanks for sharing. That blue Daytona and the CHNR are tops. I am somewhat biased as a CHNR owner ��.

The BLRO is WG and they were still in ADs in late 2017. It was on the cusp of the craziness beginning with shortages and I got in just in time. A few months later it would have been a different story.

Although I had to push hard, I managed to get a discount!

That Daytona is one of grails. Slightly (very) jealous!
