New SS Daytona..finally.
Been waiting for years to be in a situation to purchase one...10 year anniversary hit and wife gave the green light.
Love this thing. Pics are not great, cell phone, but it's stunning to the eyeballs.

Happy anniversary, our 10th was last month too and I also received clearance and purchased the white face. Haven't taken it off since.

Big congrats. Timeless piece.
Glad you didn't get the white. This is pure class.

Thanks all! I had my choice of either, BNIB white or 2 month old Black. Honestly I was torn big time, they are both beautiful. I did like how the "Daytona" script stood out a bit more on the white dial (but not so much it was offensive), but the black had a bit more "class" look to my eyes. But again, I think I would be happy with either but the black was "me" as soon as i tried it on. I have a feeling my other pieces wont get much wrist time any longer Plus when i get my white face Expl II I wont have two white faced Rolexes (no green light on that one yet)

I agree...I find the white face a bit feminine looking.

Nice Brad. We must have done something right over the past 10 years! I have timed mine for the past 24 hours, so far it hasn't lost or gained a second. Cal 4130 working hard in there!

It might be a bit on the small side but feminine? seriously?
