Got the call!!!

Recently I put a $1,000 deposit down for the new sea dweller and it's been about a month and finally got a call from my AD and he told me I got good news and bad news which do you want to hear first? I said bad news first and he said he can't get a sea dweller right now then I said ok what's the good news, he said I got black dial Daytona (hesitated for a second because I really wanted white but beggars can't be choosers) I said I'll take it! I can't make it out there today so I paid for it over the phone! Can't wait to post pics!

Wife and I are going to Aruba Tuesday and I have been debating which watch to want to take but I think the decision was just made for me!

Congrats! I hope you didn't get pressured into buying something that's not what you wanted simply because the opportunity presented itself? Worst case, flip it and make some money. Safe travels.

I have been badgering my AD for a Daytona for the past 6 months so this worked out great!
