Thanks folks. Very happy to join the club.
Classy people on here, and I welcome the advice and information.

Onward !
Congrats, Happy Birthday and a hearty SoCal welcome to TRF! Shot in the dark...Is that South Coast?!

Hahaha I only figured because that was the exact shot I took walking out with mine! That whole team was really awesome. I didn't realize I didn't get a cloth or any cool chochkies when I got my Daytona; but the whole experience with them was wonderful as is. And they made me try on the Platona
