I love my day date II so much. Ref 218235
[IMG][/IMG]
adult photo sharing Please could any day date II owners please share pictures and wrist shots, discuss the technical details of the Day date II, and any interesting and educational trivia. I wish to learn more about my grail piece and share educational information about care and maintenance of these beautiful references. I have owned it for almost 1 year now and it is amazing. At first I was really scared to wear it and it took a while to get used to it, but now I have got a serious addiction to the shear joy wearing this timepiece gives me. I wish to add my second Rolex to my collection soon and I’m thinking about a Hulk submariner as I can’t afford a Daytona yet. . any suggestions on what would be a good 2nd Rolex that’s easier to wear than my grail piece?

Gorgeous!
The LVc would pair really nicely with it, but if what you really want is the Daytona, might as well save for the extra 20% over the 116610LV and get the Daytona. |

I love your pics. It is indeed a very beautiful watch, with a silky and decadent feel. I went for the chocolate dial. And I think the Hulk is a great idea, the sunburst dials can become very addictive esp now that Spring and Summer are coming.

I think resale is in line with most gold Rolexes so always best to buy at a good price which I happily did. |
