So we now have the unique "Verga" green dial, a lemon yellow dial and a few red dials


If possible can someone please post pics of these different color dials?

Hi

I've just read this thread start to end, there are some really nice watches here

As someone who doesn't know much about these older watches, can someone explain what a 'sigma' dial is please?

Thanks very much

I should have added, is it just down to the hour markers being gold, or is there more to a Sigmal dial than that?

Thanks again.

Mine got back from the spa just in time for the Canada race today.

I should have turned the boast up a bit for Kimi before the race. He could have used it today.

Just how much is that steering wheel alone worth?

I reckon you should post this pic in the watch & steering wheel category - your combination would be contender for top pic!!

Ha!
I might have to find that thread.

I posted a few other pics in the Southeast Region section if interested. Not great but a few.

About $50k for the wheel i believe. So you don't want to drop it.

Drivers (the Ferrari drivers anyway) makes over 20 setting changes per lap at this track plus gear changes. At speed in traffic....Poster boys for texting and driving.

I missed the ultimate Daytona pic today. After the race I had a bit of time with Sir Jackie Stewart. He is a Rolex brand ambassador and was wearing the new black dial ceramic. We compared and discussed. He has several old Daytonas as you can imagine. Not appropriate to snap a pic but it would have been a treasure to have one of him with his new one next to me and my old one.

Fun day non the less.
