Christmas Incoming- Black Daytona

I had requested a black Daytona earlier this year to commemorate my wedding a couple months ago and didn't think it was going to happen this year, but my AD called and told me they had something for me. I could barely contain my excitement the morning I went to the AD.

Pictures do not do this watch justice. In the flesh, it is absolutely amazing! So glad that my wife and I got our wedding watches (albeit after the wedding), but they both have 2021 cards and we can give them to our kids in the future as a memory of this special moment in our lives. Hers is a 2021 DJ36 with the new golden fluted dial.

Happy Holidays and New Years TRF Family!

That is the one. While initially enamored with the white I know I'd only wear it in Spring/Summer. The black is the one...

Some amazing incoming threads being posted right before the end of the year. I'm so happy for you and everyone who got such an amazing Christmas surprise! Right before the price hike too is always an added bonus. Congrats to you and your wife on your beautiful wedding watches! I really like the fluted dial, but have yet to see one in person. In every photo I see, it does look amazing though! Happy Holidays and Enjoy!

I like them both. The white dial is good for wearing in all the seasons like the black dial.

Nice! I have a white one and it has been my favorite sport watch for the last 10 years - I asked the AD for a black one 2 month ago
