My SS Daytona has made way for a WG Daytona

Another big advantage of white gold over the Steel is the extra size of the watch. The WG has symmetrical lugs instead of asymmetrical as in the steel:

You can see from my 2 pictures above that this has been a great decision. The M series I used owm had clearly had a polish at some point, bezel was a bit worse for wear and it looks duller than this G serial shinier unpolished watch....this time tomorrow I should have my new pride & joy.
