I know this is heresy for a lot of Rolex Fanboys, but as an owner of the Daytona, it's my opinion that the Omega is better looking.
Well, not heresy for me. I get what you say. Thank you for the comment.

I love that particular Omega - that’s the Tokyo 2020 edition. It’s just a diferente watch - I personally don’t compare it to my steel Daytona. That’s why I have (and love) both the steel Omega and the Daytona.

Great collection…..

Thank you so much! Very kind.

That’s a Japan market edition - sold out through omega - but you’d be able to buy from some sellers.

Congrats Alex!! It’s funny for me because I generally am not drawn to Daytonas but this one is really cool!

No problem. Be glad to post this beauty lol

It’s quickly become a rival to its big brother for wrist time which is kinda wild for me being I like heft on the wrist but the OF just wears so nice.

Rolex might get some flack here and there for a rubber strap but jeez they nailed it and I own a RubberB strap for a SS SkyD

Huge congrats, Alex! It's one of the most stunningly gorgeous watches that Rolex currently produces. As your photos clearly depict, it's an absolute beauty from every direction. Enjoy it thoroughly! Kind regards, -Rick.
