Ever since I traded my Datejust a few months ago I've missed having a bi-metal watch immensely. Today I decided to add this to my collection

Nice, I didn't realize the TT Daytonas came with the newer style PM bezel. Congrats! What year is this approximately?

Very nice! I really like the white dial Daytona. Looks very elegant in combination with the steel and gold. Enjoy the new addition!

Congrats! Wear it in good health! The new bezel pops a lot more than my zenith 5 digit.

Thanks, I actually really like the bezel on your watch. In my opinion, the older models tachymeter seems more subtle which, in turn, accentuates the precious metal bezel of the watch.

Congrats to you!!. I agree, that bezel really makes it. I usually like the black dial version but in the TT l think you nailed it.

Congrats..... very nice.
I almost bought it in Japan, but the AD would not give me any discount.
Did you get a discount ?
