22 year watch journey in this pic

Not quite but please bare with me.

It is my 40th soon and I have been fortunate enough to get get allocated a few watches from different ads. I got my patek but this is actually my favourite. The first watch purchase for me was a tissot prs200 with a months worth of wages at a fast food store, now I have its successor. It was slightly easier to afford this time. I tissot was with me for my travels, job interviews, dates. I hope this new Daytona has a equally enjoyable journey with me for the next 20 years.

I am hoping to get one of these in the coming months. I'm wasn't sure if I preferred the sunburst dial or the black one. After seeing the wrist shot, I think I like the black dial better. Those sub dials really pop, looks fantastic. Enjoy!
