Thank you all.
Photos of the Daytona don't do it justice IMO. It looks even better in real life

People want to see someones new watch and say congrats then move on. Not have to keep coming back to the same thread for 5 hours.

OH NO!!!!

Not FIVE (5) hours!!!!


How many times did you come into this thread looking to see???


I can't get on this site that much during the day, so the first I see this thread, it took me a few minutes, and reading posts (including yours, lol lol lol) before I found out.

To OP ---


LOVE YOUR DAYTONA!!! Congrats!!!
