Royal Oak Chrono

I was looking for something special. I like the new Ceramic Daytona but didn't want to wait (I am going to put my name in) and didn't want to pay well above list. I decided to add this, I picked it up preowned in immaculate condition.
I was concerned about the size but it does not look large at all on my wrist.

I am a little taken back by the bling factor. The reflections off this watch do not show in photos.

Beautiful! Congrats! I received my RO recently also and you’re absolutely right.. that shine is difficult to capture! What size are your wrists?

That’s a beautiful watch that is a great size on your wrist - a definite upgrade from a Daytona, IMHO

That looks great huge congrats and the better watch.

And should you ever like a change it looks great on the black or white rubber strap as well.

Nicest of the three dial options IMO
