This or that, but decided to stay with this...

I nearly posted a conundrum in the last week on whether to sell my TT Daytona and my serviced Bark DD and probably kick a couple of thousand in to go to just a 116528 Newman Dial. I really was torn, knowing I would also not know how long it would take to sell my two existing watches.

In the end I have decided to stay with the two lovely watches I have (at least for now). I took this picture of the Daytona while having breakfast this morning, it really does have a lovely dial when there is enough light to capture it. The Day Date is also a classic.
