Awesome!! It's incredible how much nicer I think this example looks compared to a standard Sub, just with that splash of red. Well done.

** Also, the Daytonas listed above look insane! I'm loving the black bezel and white dial!!

Tomorrow I will be putting on a black dial with white sub-dials exactly like my hertage dial. I will put that on with a polished bezel and the black bezel. Pics to follow - most likely Monday.

Love both the red and green date wheels, and all the 'no cyclops' mods the best! And the pepsi with the white face making a red, white and blue watch. Really great!

And I just figured out how I can get lume on a future 'no lume' rolex I might buy - I can switch out for lume watch arms! Cool!

Thanks for sharing!

Suzy
