Thanks for the kind wishes!

Looking at the first picture of the duo I realized my Daytona desperately needed a bath so here is another picture of the two after a clean-up. The lighting really makes the red hands on the sub-dials pop.

(Also after breaking down and reading the manual to get everything set correctly on the BLNR!)

Were you at Montgomery mall?

Congrats on the new piece!

The BLNR is really popular right now. Don't think I've ever seen so many of a single watch come onto TRF so fast.

Yes, they were going to give me the smaller box but the manual did not fit in so I got them to give me a bigger one.

I wonder if they have increased the production of the bezels? I was really surprized that this dealer had one in stock. They said they had it for 2 weeks.

After setting the time 5 days ago this is the net gain of time with a little bit of positional management.
