What is better than an AP? Two APs of course!

Is the other piece in precious metal as well? Congratulations and wear them in good health.

Both gorgeous pieces! Love the White dial duo you have there.

today is a good day my friend

Have fun staring at your collection with a loupe all night. I know that's my night time entertainment. *retreats to mancave after dinner with the missus*

Congrats on the double-pick up - great choices. I know the heavy feeling; my 15710ST on the bracelet is half a pound; maybe I should upgrade to the gold 'pounder'

Double congrats! I think that's the first new Daytona TT I've seen here. You planning on keeping them?

Thanks!

AP will stay for a while - this is a bit of a grail piece for me.

With the 116503, I'm not sure. I'm not a massive Daytona fan myself, I got this piece with a very good discount so I thought why not. I do usually prefer TT over SS with Rolex, so I'll give this one a chance and see if it speaks to me or not :)

If not - I'll move it along LNIB and for cheap

Your a chrono man. Maybe an Omega Speedmaster and Patek Nautilus 5980 are next.
