Icon7 Finally the Daytona is mine

Well after a 2 year search I finally achieved my goal and found a like new white dialled Daytona.
It was purchased from Nairn who is a member of this forum and it was a pleasure to deal with him, the piece was totally as described, perfect.
I am totally blown away with it and is absolutely perfect for my needs. Here's to a long relationship

One shot from the previous owner, I hope he doesn't mind. When I get home and sort out my camera (skills) I will take some more to include a wrist shot.
Thanks for all the good wishes.
