I always thought Panda was my grail watch but the more I see the black dial Daytonas the more it appeals to me. Congrats!!!

Congratulations! Am I correct in understanding Aruba pricing to be 10% higher than US pricing?

Congrats! So did you buy any of those other pieces or anything else from this AD prior to this Daytona?

I just got back from Aruba, and encouraged by your post, went to Gandelman’s to see what was available. Many PM and TT watches available to purchase that day including DJ, DD, TT Sub and Sea Dweller, and WG GMT.

They were great I agree, but considering I wasn’t looking for TT or PM, I left with nothing to show for the visit. We were very close on an anniversary watch for my wife, but the closest option was a diamond bezel that my wife considers too flashy for her and thus saved me 9k compared to her preferred reference.

As someone here said the black 126500 is more appealing but the white 126500 is more interesting |

Hey Doug, I’m currently in Aruba and stopped by and said “Hi” to Linda. Available for purchase today was the WG Pepsi, Exp1 39, YG sky, fluted DJ blue dial and YG sub blue dial. I showed constraint and did not pull the trigger on the exp1. The missus was said good job. I didn’t bother walking over to Omega as the sun and heat is merciless.
