Don't tell your DJ, it might get jealous.

it a beautiful Daytona but at the price I would be afraid to wear it often due to how soft the gold is. i still prefer the SS. Now if they put that dial in a SS version it would be sweet. I have seen where someone did this once to a SS version.

To me a sports watch should be SS...that's the whole point...wear it everywhere doing everything with no fear as it's indestructible.

Then reserve gold for dress watches.

I do like the dial a lot and wish it was offered on the SS version.
