Unexpected incoming

Got a random text from my AD’s sister store offering me a 116519ln black dial. Wasn’t on my radar but I couldn’t say no.

Same thing happened to me with the YG version. They really are beautiful iterations.

Wow! Were you on list for WG Daytona on OF at all? I have been on list for awhile. Did you consider the silver panda too? Not sure which is better. How are you loving it?

Not at all, came as a complete surprise text as I was sitting there scrolling through my phone aimlessly. This wasn’t even my AD with all of my Rolex purchase history so I was shocked. I had bought a GS gmt for my father in May but that def doesn’t warrant a Daytona haha.
It looks and feels almost identical to the black dial steel version.
