Icon7 Picked up a Daytona Gold / SS Blue Face!

Not only did I not intend on buying anything today, I didn't even know the Daytona's had a blue face option. I went to my AD today just to see if he had a SS Daytona. He didn't, but he did have this one. I'm a sucker for blue anyway. So, what the heck...

Beautiful

The TT gets a far worse rap than it should. The blue and Panda arabic dials look awesome on it

Love it. I would either pick your watch or the white panda dial if I was going with a gold and steel Daytona. Well done.

That's a fantastic second choice! I find the the legibility of a TT is superior. Love the way the gold hands pop (sorry for the use of that expression).
