Incoming Daytona!
Q: When you’re sitting on (another) video call, and your AD pops up on caller ID, what do you do?
A: You go off camera, mute your mic and answer the phone! My sales associate from my AD called this morning at about 11:30am and said “Hey, I’ve got a panda with your name on it. Do you want it?” So, it’s now 4pm and I’m sitting at home staring at this beauty. Pics don’t do the dial justice. The white is a blindingly bright white. I’m really excited to own this piece and look forward to getting to know it better over the coming days & weeks. |

Huge congrats!
Please send proof of AD purchase -- picture in private AD receiving room, card with today's date, etc. j/k -- that was another dumb thread on here recently.

Having said that, they did take me into a side room to complete the transaction and wait while a link was being taken out because someone came in off the street while I was at the counter with them. They said it was pretty standard anytime they are dealing with a Daytona, GMT or Green Sub because folks can get a little snippy with them about not having anything in the case while someone else is buying a sought-after piece. |

As the owner of some fantasic and hard to get Rolexes-(including two Daytonas-but not this one)-this is always a striking piece. I just can't justify buying it grey. Getting it from an AD the way you did is a great deal. Congratulations!

Congratulations!!! The Daytona call is always special isn’t it? And the pickup exciting. Glad to see one sized and on the wrist also. They deserve to be worn. Short wait so I imagine you’re in the favoured “list” Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
