Thank you. Just wondering what to do with the strap. I got extra folded links for it, but I like the look of the 78350 strap better. Would that be completely out of sync with the watch?

I put it on a leather strap while I extend or change the original oyster strap.

2.8mil serial if you're interested.

Question: Are any of the 6263 or any Bakelite bezel owners intrigued by the new 116500 black ceramic bezel? I can't figure out if my lack on enthusiasm is due to having a black bezel already, or maybe I'm just odd. I feel like the odd man out.

First post and first Rolex

So many amazing Daytonas! This is my first Rolex and it had to be a Daytona. More pictures to come once I get a chance to pull out my real camera.
