Yes, this is not my EBay screen. I was out when I uploaded the pictures and realized I had not taken one of the pen, so I just found one online that looked like it. Rest assured I will not be selling the pen on EBay!

A nice little gift which will stay in my office.

Not incredibly long, but I have a good relationship with this AD. I have a decent purchase history and mentioned about 2 months ago my interest. Thankfully it worked out!

Loop the LEC and you’ll see 2 circles at the bottom of the crown. Daytonas have been AR coated under the glass since at least 2017

It is pretty, I am definitely going to enjoy it.

if you look closely you will see that behind the OF bracelet there is a rose gold end link that you can remove so if you so desired you could source a rg bracelet and go full PM


But... it would be a franken watch at that point as it does not come that way from the factory
