For me it was age/time. 10 years ago I couldn’t pull off any PM at all. Now I just wear it like steel. Casual or dressed up. I believe I feel more accomplished and mature as a person so it kind of reflects outward too.

Truly breathtaking... especially when the sunlight kisses the dial!

One of those pieces you have to try on in the flesh. Never really appealed to me...until a buddy of mine got one. Tried it on and it's different on the wrist. Personally, I like other Daytona refs but definitely much better in person.

I don’t care for Gold watches....with the one exception being this exact Daytona!

Having posted on this subject before, I absolutely love that particular iteration, and have even tried it on! Just Gorgeous!

It is beautiful, but the one with a factory baguette set bezel is even nicer IMO.

It's all in your head. I wear YG with any and all types of dress. Casual to dress.

Just scanning threads from the last few days and saw this beautiful wrist photo.

What an absolutely stunning piece.

All these comments and only 1 x TRF member with a wrist shot, this is a rare beast. More photos of this beauty please.

This is more jewellery than a watch. Beautiful to behold but this combo is too overwhelming!

Thanks aproo what a great shot it looks awesome on your wrist. I have the Ceramic white 116500LN but I would trade up for that in a heartbeat.

One question is it your daily wearer, or just occasionally?

Notwithstanding your pulling it off amazingly well with your smart but casual attire.

Likewise RJ, I inquired at my AD and he said he would have to make a special order and it would be 4-6 months wait and zero discount.

Scanning the classifieds though whilst not going for a premium they do hold their money well for a PM watch, often selling for around for MRSP (give or take) second hand.

It's a rare beast and a beauty at that.

Thanks for the kind words. I wear it at least once or twice a week. Actually, it pairs nicely with T-Shirt and jeans as well.

The green dial is just mesmerising and is so nicer than the Hulk.

I think it's amazingly beautiful. I don't think I'd get one though unless it was my second or third or fourth Daytona in the collection as the green dial makes it less versatile for everyday wear.
