pulling the day date trigger

Should I? I have always wanted one. I am not getting younger. You can't take it with you. You only live once. What else are you going to spend it on? It's "just a watch". You 'earned it'. You spent what?!? It marks a milestone. F*ck what anybody else thinks. Tony Soprano wore one. Nobody notices and nobody cares. It's only money. The Dalai Lama wore one. You will smile every time you check the time. It will appreciate. A fool and his money... The coin said heads! It might become my daily. The coin said tails. I will only wear it on special occasions. My casio only cost $20 and keeps better time. Who wears a wrist watch these days? A 2024 apple watch will be obsolete in 10 years. That bracelet.

Did I miss any?

Can you change the dial at service?

Sounds like there's no choice except to get one. Do so.

It’s a beautiful reference. If you find one in great condition, don't think twice about buying it.

I would say yes, but not the one you chose. My 2c is DD functions better as a statement piece, and should always be YG (or platinum with ice blue dial). The one youre talking about looks almost EXACTLY like a DJ36. But if you love it, go for it.
