New Purchase (UPGRADE)

Ok, I decided to go ahead and get the Day Date and got ride of the TT Sub. I think I'm done for now as I dont believe there is anything I want to move toward, unless its an all gold Daytona! What do my fellow TRF think! enclosed some wrist action.

Congratulations! You may want to consider adding a link to avoid stretching the bracelet.

Nice Day Date! Although the diamond bezel and dial isn't my style, it certainly works and is still tasteful, especially any gold watch with dark skin. Any gold watch next to my pasty white skin just adds years to my age. Someday years from now a gold Daytona, too! Congrats!

It's not quite my style and it's way above my budget, but there is no question that that is one beautiful watch.

Congratulations.

Just beautiful. Some people don't care for bling, but I think it looks stunning. And the gold looks fantastic on you.

Oh - and another member pointed it out and I had not really noticed this before, but gold looks really rich and warm against darker skin. My skin tone is very white and I don't think the gold color would be as flattering on my wrist.

Congrats on the new piece. It's a little too bling and flashy for me, but everyone has their own taste in watches.
