Newest Addition-SS Daytona
I made a post recently about buying a SS Daytona with Zenith mov't vs. a new "V" Daytona. I decided I was going to try and find a brand new "V" series watch. As luck would have it, HKperf had one list on the board last week. He agreed to meet me in LA and sell me the watch. It was exactly as he described, BNIB. Thanks again HKperf

Thanks for all the compliments. I got my first Rolex as a gift from my wife. It is a SS Sub which I still wear every day to work. About 5 years ago, I happened to see the stainless Daytona in a Rolex ad. I fell in love with it from the moment I saw it. I didn't realize that it would be so difficult to acquire one. I went to the Rolex dealer in the Bellagio for my 10 year wedding anniversary looking for a Daytona. It was then I realized, I would probably never be able to buy one at MSRP from a dealer. I ended up walking out with a SS/Platinum Yachtmaster.

Well, this holiday season, one of my business associates made a deal with me. He would buy me a stainless Daytona, I would let him use my 3D xray machine at no charge to him.

Long story short, I found HKperf on this site, and made it happen.
