New Daytona...
Just received my first Daytona. Love it so far and the ceramic is just fantastic... I will really try to use it a lot and put the scars of life on it as we go along. Well - thats the ambition anyway

No. i was there too and asked them to call me when they have one, so i could at least try it on.

Did a little non-rolex window shopping and educating (omega, tudor).
Went to peacock, the other razny in addison, and burdeen's.

Burdeen's has a pre-owned one for $20k+ and a new one for

wait for it

wait for it











$25k
