Wowser! Do you wear the daydate less now that you have the DDII? I imagine so, but you are still planning on holding on to that diamond dial? Best.

Thanks guys! As for wearing DD less I have had the DDII for a few days so not yet! I think the DDI for special occasions though and DDII more sports watch and will probably get much more time on wrist.

Damn....speechless. Surprisingly I do like that one just a hair more than the diamond dial which I like more than the Daytona.
Congrats, enjoy them in health.

Thanks Rashid! For me Daytona still tops for sure though followed closely by the new DDII! Like them all though and all compliment each other.

Superlative, my friend, you are passing into legend faster than your avatar. I know they are all your babies, but can I be cheeky and ask you to rank some or even all your watches in order of your preference, I know we would all be fascinated.

Hefty weights!
Ken, this probably sounds a bit stupid and silly, but could you please make a photograph of those beauties from the other side aswell?
I mean you wearing them (wristpic) but lets see the locking (claps) of both watches.
You have such stunning watchcollection man. I am glad you want to share it here with us thanks man

Ken, the picture of your new DD2 seals the deal for me. As some on this board know, I;ve been struggling with my decision between the ice blue concentric dial and the black concentric arabic dial. Ice blue concentric it is!

Great choice as far as I am concerned and I am biased but for good reason!
