Tell the girls it is pure platinum. A good pick-up line. And if they can't tell SS from Plat, then they are asking to be picked up

Huge congrats. I tried to buy that particular daytona from wempe on friday but they were adamant about their list. Glad it actually exists! Congrats again.

White dial...man! I envy your eyesight. Flipped mine when it took me too long to see what minute the indicator was pointing to!

Yeah, I was about to look elsewhere, but they called me right before I pulled the trigger on the grey market. Apparently a gentlemen in line before me waited 10 months before getting a call last week (but he had already purchased elsewhere). In any case the list just got a lot shorter I would say.
