Latest and only Rolex I have left in my watch collection...
As I have been on Patek Philippe and Audemars Piguet as of late, I finally got my hands down most favorite Rolex I have ever owned to date.

Can't blame you, it's THE modern Rolex imo. Welcome to the club.
Paging Dr Tom for secret handshake...only after the stickers come off. |

That’s how it started for me. I wasn’t really a Daytona fan until trying it on a half dozen times. Will be watching for your incoming thread. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

I just don’t get the combination of light blue and brown. I find the brown ceramic bezel particularly bizarre. Sorry, but I feel it’s a shame to have the platinum Daytona only in such a weird combination of colors.

Hey OP - Rolex should use your wrist shot in a marketing campaign to show that buyers of their watches are not just Fund Managers and Second Hand Car Salesmen

Well, if you're gonna have one Rolex, that's THE one to have. I'm not a huge Daytona fan, but if I were in a position to own any (and only one) Rolex, it would be that one, hands down. That watch doesn't sing- it wails like Axl in his prime, croons like Sinatra, and shreds like Dimebag.
Alas, I only own "just" a stainless Sub. |
