Vintage Daytona SS

[shedlock2000]

Pardon me for being stupid, but....

We all know that a vintage daytona SS is worth mega beer tokens, and that they are highly sought after and very collectable, what i want to know is..................WHY???

There an Ok watch, but paul neman had one and now everyone wants one? Yes they have a few chrono dials, not that there really any use to many people, theres a gazillian different dial arrangements and only a few of them make it worth so much, and its an ok looking thing, but nothing really special.

I know im going to hurt many daytona owners feelings here, but i just dont get it.

Now Bonds SS sub, i can see that, it has usability, proveonce, history, fame, quintisentialness, classic looks, and been worn in very famous films by very famous people, but the daytona was worn by paul newman, a fairly large star, in a not so famous movie.

Someone please explain, and can anyone tell me why it can tell you how fast you were going and how long it took you, and all that, but cant even tell you what date you did it on!!

Sorry for getting so grumpy about it, but i just dont get the obsession.

Up to $150 grand for a paul mewman in GWO!!!!!!

Also someone please post a pic of the Paul neman dial and explain why it is different from the others? Thanks
