YAY Saturday is Daytona day!!!!!
I got a call from my AD telling me that my 116520 is BACK!!!! As you may recall I had a microscopic imperfection on my then 4 month old SS Daytona which I didnt sweat since I know Rolex Canada would make it right. Well tomorrow I find out and from what the watch maker at my AD (who checked over the watch in detail before sending it downtown for me) says its as good as new. They polished out the bracelet which I had left a nice gouge on the clasp and also as a precaution gave the watch a full service (just in case the mark on the dial had any particles fall off of it)
I really cant wait to see it again, and after 3 weeks without it it iwll feel like a new watch again.....oh wait it will be like a new watch again. I must say though I have really enjoyed wearing my SD for almost a full month non-stop. Its great to put something away for a while and then bring it out and wear it again. I think after I give the Daytona a couple of weeks, I will bring out the trusty TT DJ again. I havent worn that one in almost 3 months, I bet you guys that it will feel like christmas when I pull it out of the safe :) Here are some pics of my baby who I will see later on today      And here is someone I will be seeing at the end of this month, but for now she is taking a nice break.   oh what the heck here's a SD pic just because she is my favourite

Glad to hear it all worked out well for your watch, Roger.
You do realise you have TWO heads in that last picture, don't you?

Great pics, Roger. But who is that growing out of the back of your head. Is this what they mean by having eyes in the back of your head?
