GMT ii c and SS Daytona white dial

I just met my brother today and he just got his first rolex from his parent in law for his wedding ceremony...... it was just awesome....:thumbsup :
I took a pic of it together with my GMT, and tell you the truth, in real life daytona looks so much better than the pic....

That's insane!

1. He gets a Rolex for his wedding present.
2. He gets the rarest Rolex of them all... a SS Daytona!

How in the world did he get so lucky??

And I'm sure his bride is even more of a catch than the Daytona itself.

Congrats to him!
