Nice story, cool upgrade, great pics. Looks like an unwritten episode of Miami Vice, lol. I'm joking, of course. I'm a big fan of MV. Sonny Crockett wore a gold DJ in season one. Big congrats on your new Daytona. Looking forward to more pics and your impressions. Kind regards, -Rick.

Been "full circle" a couple of times myself, so know exactly what you're saying.

Huge congrats, Gary. That panda dial...

Looking at these great looking white gold dials I don't understand how grey dealers are advertising steel models at similar prices.

Exactly right. I sold my SS 116520 the other day for £11000, so sn extra £5000 to 'upgrade' to this white gold model (RRP is 3 times the price of SS) seems a no brainier to me.

It's absolutely awful waiting for a new watch to arrive. Hurricane Irma has delayed it a bit further (and I am not complaining about that, more important to me that everyone is safe), so David SW is shipping it tomorrow as FedEx start working again in his area tomorrow, this means (all being well) I should get it this Friday.
