Xenophen, I tried most of the dealers around the close counties for a couple of years and got nowhere, most laughed and all the grey dealers are charging a fortune. In the end I was fortunate to deal with Nairn and got a perfect example.
I promise photo's will follow and again thanks for all the kind wishes.

I know what you mean. I went grey in the end at a premium. I managed to ameliorate the cost by trading in another watch though.

I am so jealous. The Daytona is definitely my grail and hope to get one myself some day.

That's a mighty fine purchase Paddy If it had been a black dial I'd have snatched Nairn's hand off

I'm really pleased that you both have had a good transaction - only on TRF
