New Watch - A Golden Day!
Been thinking about this for a number of months and finally the stars aligned and I was able to muster up the fortitude to let go of enough stainless steel and the exact watch I was looking for came up for a price I could live with. Well it arrived today and I declare this “a golden day!”…. a Daytona 116509 golden day. Thanks Matt for the smooth and pleasant transaction.

Absolute Stunner! A BIG congrats and enjoy! The red hands provides a great contrast against your dial.
This could be my next acquisition. Just wished it had a date function. But, I suppose (like you) I could live without one. The Daytona is legendary in appeal and status. Well, your dog appears to be asking you whether you still love HIM/HER more than your toys?!?! Your mugging her appears otherwise though. LOL. Again, congrats!! BEST REGARDS |
