I’m all over the moon!

Hi all,

I am so excited about this purchase and wanted to share with y’all. I informed my boutique last year that I am interested in a Daytona. I made a couple of calls last year to follow up no big news. Early last week I called, and they told me it’s difficult to get but they will check. Two days later they told me that I will receive a call on Monday and I did! I went to the boutique and paid for it today. It’s not for me it’s for my husband! I will be going to the boutique tomorrow morning with my husband and the staff will present him a green box! It’s gonna be a complete SURPRISE! I am excited to see his expressions

I will share more pictures from the pick up tomorrow. Here is a sneak peek. Thanks for letting me to share.

TRF rocks!

That is an amazing gift and I am sure your husband will be stunned. The black dial is gorgeous in person, and a classic.

Wow, you're a good wife!! What a fantastic gesture. The black-dial Daytona C is absolutely amazing, and it's even more spectacular in person. He will be thrilled!! -Rick.
