Incoming - The Daytona Story

OK, yes it's expensive but then so are the watches we all love...this book screams quality, unless my boat comes in I doubt I'll ever see anything as beautiful as a Newman Daytona up close, the photos in this book give you all the beauty at a fraction of the cost....hard to justify the cost of these books until you've seen one up close & then it all becomes clear




for scale against my 16610



For Dino

How much worth is that book actually..the print seems to be pretty exotic and i guess that must have cost you a fortune..
