Man - I got hit up by 2 newbies to buy my watch. (Less than 2 posts and joined in Nov 2018. Clearly phishing and most likely an attempt at fraud.

Congrats ! And I LOVED those shark watches , had a few myself growing up. I remember how disgusting those Velcro straps got by the end of a hot summer cutting lawns and swimming in town pool and ocean.

Too funny. I was thinking the EXACT same thing about the shark band. It would be covered in soot at the end of a long summer. A true tool watch!

Way to go. Great history into humble beginnings. Congrats on arguably the best looking Daytona.

Good catch - but looks like he is selling the one he bought based on the more recent post about it.
