I know!!! The new 214270 is on the wish list!! But it will have to wait since I'm number 3 for the Daytona no idea when I'm gonna get that call so I do t wanna spend that money & then get a call. Although if I buy something else you know they'll call as soon as I do so that might speed up the process!!! Lol

Hillary actually wore an Oyster Perpetual on a leather strap to the summit of Everest.

So many conflicting stories surrounding this. I read somewhere that Sir Hillary was wearing a Smiths, and not this piece. It was Norgay that was sporting the Rolex.
