Every time I watch F1 races I see that platinum Daytona and it is just striking. For me it is a tossup between that and the white gold with red accents Daytona.

Love the watch and much congrats on it............. I could have done without a rundown on your finances and what you have and what you don't. I guess when I was in my 20's I may have been like that as well.

Beautiful watch and my grail too but kind of surprised at the packaging in your pic- I thought goldys come in a more flashy hardwood box.
