MY daytona white face and MY wife
She put it on her wrist and told me... you could have propose with this watch (instead of engagement ring) and i would say yes for sure..... :))) So guys - if you are planning to engage - don't hesitate to use daytonas

PS watch is really great but i still cant wear it as a daily watch - not sure why. Still using my old (6 mths ) SubC LN

It would be a lot cheaper to propose with a 116520 rather than an engagement ring

When my wife saw my white Daytona, she was ready to pounce on it. I almost had to peel it away from her! Lol!

Well, if you are 21 years old, do you propose with rings over 10k EUR? I didn't :) But i was in good situation because my father is diamond dealer and i do have sth like 80% discount on diamonds

They look good on you both! I guess that means she gets to keep it..Looks to me like youve got the justification to get the new Daytona ceramic for you! Happy new year!

Looks great on your wife. My wife wears hers every day (she wore a Sub for several years before the Daytona).
