Hi.... Love the WG Daytona with Arabics. Would love to hear more about the deal ?? The MRSP of the GMT and the WG Daytona differ quite a bit :) Hope you didnt have to trade the car :)
Could you send some more pics ? Would love to see more.

I prefer not to mention the name of the AD as he asked me not to (not sure why), but I believe the MSRP is $27.9K US and I got it for $21K + tax. I'd been looking at prices from ADs and gray market dealers (not counting ebay stores) for the last few years and this was by far the lowest I had seen for the white face 116509 "Z" SN, at least from an authorized dealer I could walk into, so I went for it. I also got his word that I have dibs on his next SS Daytona (white or black) at MSRP. Hopefully he keeps his word on that. I hope that's a great price, but at the minimum it's a decent price, and regardless, I love the watch so I'm happy no matter what.

I'll try to put up some more pictures later.

Congrats, on your watch. I have the same one and love mine. I find it less busy then my metoriate dialed one. You seem to have got a great deal from an AD.

that is a VERY good price. only thing I am surprised is they didnt recommend you to ship out of state? maybe they will be willing to let you return the watch, and charge you again, ship it out of state.
