Visiting the AD tonight to Replace what I lost

It's time! Well not really yet but I will finally make my decision by tonight. After my loss of my beloved Datejust I've been on the hunt to replace it. Many of you guys have helped me with your opinions between the GMT II C, Sub C, Sub C LV, and also the Daytona. I even thought about flipping my sub for one of those. Many of you made me realized that I should keep my sub. I'm taking a trip out to my AD tonight and finally making my choice. I also realized that I can't go wrong with either of them. If you guys are interested please stay tuned and I will post up picks either tonight or tomorrow. Thanks guys.

It would be hard for me to sleep the night of making that kind of decision.

Alright sorry guys I guess I somewhat lied. I didn't make it to the AD because of work and I'm on a travel job shooting a commercial somewhere in a desert. I'll be back on Wednesday morning and no more messing around. I'm going straight to the AD after. SO I will report back on Wednesday or Thursday. Sorry for the slight delay. This may look like I'm stalling so I don't have to make a choice on my watch yet but work has been kicking my butt. Thanks for checking in.

Alright guys I finally had the time to make it to my AD for the watch. It was such a short time that I was able to spend there that the extra links and stickers are still on. I will head back to get it all done soon. Take a look and what I brought home. I haven't really worn it but I love it!

The Daytona was too busy for me but the dial on the sub c lv was just so breath taking. I hope I made the right choice.

Awe man, I love the black ceramic bezel daytona! Chocolate face, black bezel, black strap . . . thing oozes awesome, though it seems like you gotta dress around that watch
