Nice one Hamilton, and wearing it 'a droite' means them pesky pushers don't dig into your handback.

Wear it well!

Thanks Lovey! I'm still in disbelief that I finally got my Daytona. I feel happy, excited and motivated to go on with my addiction. BTW, just like you, I'm teaching my kids to carry on their duties as watch collectors. I want to make sure they will take good care of my girls in the future.

Your excitement about the Daytona is infectious. Only within the confines of the TRF can you share that feeling and know that it is genuinely regarded.
Enjoy your new Rolex; I am sure you earned it.
P.S. There were times when I picked up a Rolex with my oldest son, allowing him to see his Dad's joy at the moment.
He is now a 25 year old lawyer with his own mini-collection of Rolexes (a 3rd generation Rolex owner).

"to the right" en Francais! therefore the pushers on your new Daytona (remember the new watch you got)wont dig into your hand like they do for leftys

Hamilton old chap, methinks One's brain is still awestruck on the recent acquisition. Now go and have a lie down and kick start the old grey matter, there's a good chap

I got it Paul - "Let me guess, the euphoria has not worn off yet". And you're right I'm still

Yes owning a Daytona is a religious experience, and fitting that you went to praise the Lord that day and give thanks. I wish you a long and prosperous and healthy life so your daytona will get lots of wrist time
