Went in for DD II Everose - I am a happy man

I haven't been on trf for long time but wanted to post a recent pick up.

Was on vacation in carribean and wifey was ok with me getting an Everose DD II. Went into the shop they had 1 in stock but I didn't love the stick dial as I wanted one with Romans. So, I ended up leaving with this.

I'm happy. What do you think? Good decision or bad decision? I was second guessing myself but figured I couldn't go wrong with either. Sorry for crappy iPhone pics

Its perfect on your wrist - never settle for another watch if you want the DDII with romans, buy it.

But that watch... i prefer over the DDII - no contest

Just an FYI anyone heading down there. They said they just had their July increase. But they still seem to be 1 increase behind

Beautiful pick up! I just hope that with the Daytona you're not second guessing your decision! Either way you win!

My next will be an Daytona Everose with a black face.

Good choice - now you have another on the horizon ;)
