Woke up saturday with a snap, crackle, and pop, hangover. (not proud)

Put my black SS Daytona on, smiled and was promptly blinded by the bright light reflecting off it. Had breakfast, looked at the time, strained my eye's for a while, and gave up.

Put on my Sub and thought good time to check the reserve power of the 4130 movement. It sat and ran for 66 hours, and 5 minutes straight. Perhaps had I given it a good manual wind it would of hit the 72 hour mark. No biggie anyway.

Had a hard time not cutting the experiment short to start wearing the Daytona again, lol.

that OTHER Daytona - 24 hrs. of Daytona, that is - celebrate the 50th anniversary of the race that Rolex adopted as the name for it's iconic chrono.

Congrats on your testing!
