Incoming!!

First of all, thanks to all those that posted their comments in my "Dilemma - Daytona vs BLNR" thread

Went to the AD today and tried on both the Daytona and BLNR. I was surprised, because I was walking in believing I would buy the Daytona but the longer I wore the BLNR, the more I loved it. I just loved the blue/black combo and the way the watch felt on my wrist. REALLY happy I decided to go with it. I felt the Daytona looked a little small on my wrist.. hopefully Basel 2014 can fix that!

Anyways, very happy to add this beautiful watch to my collection. :) Thank you all for your support!

I wanted a Daytona as well, and thought it looked a little small on my wrist as well. Oh well!
