Daytona just got rob! J/J

Just joking!!!

But definitely feeling down... she asked for the watch multiple times, I pretended I didn’t hear her... recently she kept asking, so today i went out and bought a Rubber b strap, resized properly for her, put it on her wrist and said wear with care. I’ll take it back any day when your bored of it....

What can i say, “happy wife happy life” sad lol

It seems like you prefer the AP to the Daytona. I had a Daytona white dial and thought it was on the small size for my wrist size. Wonder just wonder if Daytona will be offered in a larger size? 42 mm perhaps? Just wishing.

Daytona just got rob! J/J

That’s exactly what i’m going to do with the next watch for my wife. She has a bunch of Rolexes in the safe that she never wears but still wants another one.

She’s really set on a YG Daytona, which i’m ok with because if she doesn’t wear it (again) it just goes into my own rotation :)

Better then having a bunch of ladies’ models, that I can’t wear, collecting dust...

I love AP but the super jumbo with see thru back where the movement only takes up half the space your looking at is a serious pet peeve of mine...gorgeous finish but just looks terrible to me

You must be an incredible surgeon to resection that RubberB and still have it fit into the clasp’s connection pins.

You are doing the right thing methinks
