Impulse buy - you didnt guess this one!!
So many of you took bets as to what the next one would be - im happy to say i dont think anyone got it right

Because I have watch A.D.D. - i went completely off base

I figured I love my SS daytona - why the hell not get it in gold

I never liked this dial before I tried it on at my AD a couple days ago, but its stunning. =)

And the legibility is awesome
