New Daytona 126500 !
Got the wonderfully welcome call letting me know my name had come up for a Daytona. Was able to pick it up today, but I brought my youngest son with me to share in the experience. We both had a great time - chocolate truffles and Champagne in the middle of the day while picking up a new Rolex is a treat for sure! Special thanks to the folks at Mayors Jewelers of Tampa - Barbara and Sammy especially - for such a memorable experience, not to mention a beautiful watch!







Thanks for letting me share.

:)

Congratulations. Last weekend my AD had a two tone Daytona for sale. After wearing it for 5 minutes I suddenly see why they get the hype. I forgot I was wearing it and when I looked down I saw a watch I could live with. Not the two tone, but a stainless black or white would be sweet.

Wow, just wow! What a beautiful timepiece! If you don't mind me asking, how long did you have to wait from the time you first expressed interest?

Yes! My youngest son has a Bond Seamaster and a 126710 BLNR GMT Master II. My oldest son has a Blake Seamaster and a 126610 Submariner. They picked up the appreciation of watches from me, but that's something I've been cultivating in them for years and years!

I really couldn't say. When the new Daytona got released, I really liked it. I'm a big Daytona fan and I'm really thankful my name came up to allow me to pick up the new stainless steel model.

The case looks like my 116509 from a lateral profile view. I absolutely love the dial counter ring details and metal framing of the ceramic bezel.

Couldn't be happier.

Thanks for all the kind words!

:)
