Glad to hear it! You need a legible watch for daily wear

Very nice. My dream is for the bezel on the middle to be on the watch on the left.

I loved the chocolate dial in the ADs but your comments on readability and from other owners persuaded me to buy my chocolate elsewhere.

Out of those three I would have to say that the RG on the left is my favorite, followed closely by the ceramic on strap in the middle.

I just love the contrasting sub dials on this watch!

Gotta admit I went from SS to TT to YG (multiple dials) to RG then finally Platinum

Once I got the Platinum I knew I would never wear another!!

Honestly I don't see that happening, the only reason why is due to the color of rose gold and yellow gold...I like the diversity and I like to match it with my rings and chains!

My favourite is the yellow gold diamond dial for looks.....

Chocolate strap for comfort

And I haven't even tried on the Rose gold one on bracelet yet to be honest.....AD brought it in for me and I brought her home and haven't even had the pleasure yet as work has had me busy

No stainless and no zenith.....I like the 4130 movement a lot as I have subjected it to utter torture and it's never skipped a beat! Also I feel the stainless daytona to be a tad bit light on the wrist.

One thing I have never seen with these watches is a video of someone actually using the functions properly. Does anyone ever really use it? If so, would you demonstrate in a short video please.
