Thx, I could not see putting out that premium from a Grey, vs list of Rolex AD, which is near impossible to get.
Even used has a hefty premium on it , over the last yea, or so.

Just to be clear, I'm referring to the older Daytona, pre-ceramic, but guess either way it applies, over retail price, regardless of version....

Great looking Speedy though, never can go wrong with a Speedy IMO....

yeah that ship has sailed too. They're selling for just a little under the ceramic daytonas these days. Crazy times.

OP, beautiful watch! Congrats

Yah, that’s called a lot of time on the boat and golf course....thank god, I’m handsome.

I think you just convinced me to take long sleeved pictures, peel off the polo, put on the dress shirt, take the picture, take off the dress shirt, put on the polo....

No, maybe not...

Love the Speedy. If I get an Omega that's likely the one.

Have to agree with this. I know the Daytona is cool and all, but the Speedy is the moon watch. Plus it is affordable and obtainable.
