It was interesting wearing it at work today.
Work was not great but when I felt bad or tired I looked down at my wrist and thought, “By the power of Le Mans…. I HAVE THE POWER!!!!” and then I went up and got another cup of coffee. |

Wow Louis ... that's one hell of a pickup. Congrats!
When the WG version came out, I asked my AD to be put on the list. They laughed and said they only were getting one (1) ever, and it was going to a person involved with professional racing. No way anyone else would be considered, and I was there very first customer with a 9 watch (2 PM) history with them. I think that's why people have a hard time believing it was a "walk in" (completely out of the blue) purchase. |

I would have really liked the WG version but I have to be honest that when they discontinued it and switched to YG I was elated. There’s just something about YG! |

This one you can really see the difference in black between the bezel and the dial.

Thanks everyone.
I’m doing a lot of travel the next few weeks and Le Mans had to go into the vault. It was a sad moment for me. My wife said it’s ok and Le Mans will be back in a couple weeks but I feel like a part of me is missing. |
