A "re-acquisition".....

Owned this Daytona two summers ago - at the time I had several blue dials in my collection so it didn't see much wrist time.

For the past couple of months, I've been pining for a WG watch on bracelet so this piece came along just at the right time!

Those shots are sneaky. First glance the bezel looks ceramic

First the rose gold/chocolate dial and now your blue/white gold. The two Daytonas I've now come to really like.

Congratulations.

Looks great! I was able to try one on a few months ago and it's a stunner in person. Pics don't do the dial justice.

Congrats!
