WOW!! I think Ed's just fainted!!

Don't be disappointed... it's been put in a SS Daytona. Compliments of Hannes, for Oysterworld.

JJ Irani · 4 November 2005, 03:09 AM

Even better.....think of all that WG cash you'd be saving and still have the benefit of that gorgeous dial on an SS.

Thats one sharp picture!!!

Not a lover of the moden Daytona,but quite like that dial. Love how the red subs and second hands compliment the main dial.And IMO much better than the standard SS dial.
Thats one excellent picture

OMG. One of the most beautiful things I have ever seen.

Be still, my palpitating heart. You're right, JJ. I nearly fainted when I saw those gorgeous pictures.

Now THAT's a Daytona.

That has to be one of the most beautiful watches I have ever seen. So beauiful in fact it has brought tears to my eyes.

Ed, serious questions (I know, a rare thing here.......):

Is it the fact that this is a Daytona that appeals to you, or is it just the meteorite dial? Have you looked at other meteorite watches?

I am not a fan of the Daytona, but those pics are out of this world good, really good!!

Al, I had a chance to slip on a meteorite WG DD at RDV in TO (still with me?) and it was actually even more impressive IMO than the 'D' because the dial was less cluttered! WOW

If I was going DD though, I'd still pick a platinum pressie, with the sky blue dial. YOWSA!

Al, there is just something about the combination of the WG, the metorite face and the red hands, plus the black strap, that just sing to me. The fact that it's a chrono also helps, although I hardly ever use that function, but it is a complication. And you know how I love complications.

But no, it is not the fact of the Daytona, because I really am not enamored of most Daytonas. In part because they are missing the date function.

I did see a meteorite DD in either WG or Pt (I can't remember now which metal it was). It was also beautiful, but it didn't do for me quite what the Daytona does.
