LOL - no way in hell. 70? The way I party I will be dead by then for sure and not many ppl live until that age either.

The Choco dials doesnt matter if its a DJ, DD, Skydweller or Daytona are awesome.

When you see it in the sunlight its amazing.

No way, it's a stylish modern combo on many top brands now.

I like the new romans and the way they're cut and reflect light off.
However I always was a stick dial type of guy, so when I saw the baguettes are shaped like the stick dial 😍

the rose gold/olive green combo really appeals to me in a subtle way that my smurf doesn't.

I have been really into the DD2 the last few weeks.

I never had one while they were in production, but I have to say that I do truly prefer it for my lifestyle to the DD40. It is a bit sportier IMO.

The DD40 has significant advancements, and it certainly has it's place in any collection. I would argue the DD2 does as well!

That is THE ONE. Yellow Gold/Champaign with stick markers. Roman numerals are my second choice but only doable on the full size model DD

I guess I got and proudly wear the "old mans" watch! About A quarter century too early!
I dont think too many 70 year old wrists may be big enough or can support this weight!
