Icon20 Thank U God, My Rose Gold DAYTONA!

Been dreaming about this ever since it was unveiled at Basil 2008!

Then 6 weeks ago I saw this in person at an AD while traveling to Greece but it was the pink face, it looked stunning but was very keen to see it in the black face, like in the pictures i've seen on the internet! (and I dont have a black face daytona)

Then yesterday I got a call from a friend who said he knew an AD that had it in stock in UK and that prices of Rolex were going up 12.5% today. So I rushed at the opportunity, and ended up getting a good discount on the watch too...!

I'm not really a YG fan and have always stuck to steel... but this Daytona in RG truly is amazing...!!

Sorry for the lack of good pics (they just dont do it justice) as took this with my Video Camera since my digital camera is not with me.

Wow, congratulations on a beauty timepiece.

Saw the exact one at my AD, it's very heavy and the black dial is the obvious choice.
