Promise this is the last incoming this year...
Well what a year this has been for the collection. Came into it with the 116713, Panerai, IWC, and GP and pledged to buy one PM piece to commemorate turning 30 and so acquired a 36mm DD in February. And then somehow convinced myself to also get a PM Daytona also in February....
Long story short I couldn’t stop thinking about the 15450 and received this brand new one from TRF seller Harrison’s Brilliance today. Honestly I couldn’t count the hours I obsessed over images of these watches when in college and thought I would never be able to acquire 1, let alone all 3 by 30. Life has a funny way of unfolding and I count myself to be truly blessed. I also took some photos comparing the size of the 450 to the 36mm DD and 40mm Daytona for reference for all of you.

I think when you look at the diameter of the watch including the RO lugs they look nearly the same size but the daytona feels more substantial on the wrist. The relatively smaller aperture of the 15450 dial makes it appear smaller next to the daytona in real life. Also the PM daytona is substantially heavier.
