That's a gorgeous dial on you Daytona Axel. Congratulations on a great catch.

I am excited about mine also. It's been 6 weeks since I purchased my SS WD, and I like it more every day.

Congratulations on the great looking "Patrizzi Daytona"!

I have 2 questions for you:
  1. Have you worn it yet?
  2. How often are you planning on wearing it?


Thanks
Allan

Some fantastic watch pics. I wondered how long the polish lasts on the bezel before it starts to loose its shine. Will Rolex repolish as part of service?

Many many congrats! I really liked the Zenith dial... with the seconds hand at the 9:00 position instead of like mine at the 6:00.
