Stopped by to say hi and offered a 116519LN Daytona

The wife and I stopped by to say hello to our SA and was offered a 116519LN, needless to say I was beyond surprised (and extremely grateful). I've wanted an Oysterflex Daytona and I must say it looks pretty damn good, especially in the sun.

Congrats! Great lucky day for you. Out of my hundreds if not thousands of visits I can only think of one time I was offered anything decent, an SD43 and that was after I left and they called me when I was already in the parking lot.

Did you ask for WG or this particular dial?

Thank you, no I actually requested something else but glad this was offered instead.

That looks amazing. The hype behind SS is dying for me personally when I see these.

So, I am confused. Did you actually buy it, or was it simply offered?

Damn! That's beautiful! Normally I am not a big fan of diamonds, but this really looks great! Sounds like you happened to walk in just at the right time. Rare occurrence for sure! I've never seen a WG OF Daytona in an AD, not even an Exhibition Only piece. Well done and a huge congrats!
