Icon12 A Daytona you don't see everyday.....

Took the bracelet off because it getting ready to take in for a full service job.....

Just want to share what a 24 years old never polish condition of a Daytona

Got to love the sharp crisp lugs..... Now this is something you don't see everyday.... & sadly Rolex don't make them anymore.....

Enjoy.....

You could poke an eye out with those lugs. Careful.

Thanks for sharing Tony.

After nearly a quarter century, this watch still looks amazing.

What a beauty.....Looks NOS or safe queen!

Those absolutely gorgeous lugs are great until one bumps them and there's no extra material there to work with. ;-)

That's beautiful. And you have maintained it in perfect shape!
Sharp edges and lug bevels are what I miss from newer Rolex models...

They never wore it from the looks of it. Because I could wear it for two days it would have scratches on it.
