Dang, it looks brand new Otto. How much was the overhaul?

Hi Otto
Glad to hear Rolex Japan did a top job on your Daytona

I see spring has arrived in Japan, pity I just missed out on that

It was great catching up with you in Tokyo, I'd like to go back there sometime.
I still like your 18k black dial Daytona the best

mickeydainish · 30 March 2008, 08:34 PM

Gr8 pics and what a gr8 SS Daytona you have there.... Enjoy it mate. :-)

Thanks, Steve,

Actually, I wore that gold Daytona all afternoon today.

The cherry blossoms are moving to full bloom a bit early this year. It's one of my favorite times of the year.

I look forward to seeing you again when you visit Japan again; maybe to look for the new watches/upgrades/models(?) Rolex will preview at Basel this week.

I do not think they polish the bezel but RSC told me you can purchase one for under $200.

Very nice, Otto. It DOES look new again!

I have had results like that on the two that I have sent in for service. They have returned in literally pristine condition. Excellent!!!!

It's looking superb, Otto.

How is the 116528 holding up, wear wise?

CEG · 31 March 2008, 07:10 AM

I picked up my SS Daytona on Friday after its overhaul at RSC Tokyo. I think they did a great job! Here are a couple of photos.

But first, the cherry blossoms are almost in full bloom!

I can't get over how much "better than new" that DT looks!

They really did a bang up job on it!

Warren · 31 March 2008, 10:26 AM
