So it came....

I had to beg my wife to make a trip to the UPS warehouse to collect this item, here are a few stills from the ensuing moments...

btinl could make a fortune should he/she be able to consistently "guess" like that!

This watch fits and feels just so comfortable! I've had exp ii and sub LV in the past and I am excited about how this will be able to be dressed up or down.

Yes, 4.5 days without a watch on the wrist seemed like an eternity.

Very nice!

Enjoy.

Although I no longer have a Daytona, I appreciate it for what it is. A truly great piece of watch engineering. The 4130 is an exquisite movement.
