Some watch Pics from the Holidays.

During diner I asked everyone to bring their time pieces to table so that I can specifically take some pics to be posted on this forum . My older brother recently purchased a monster the ceramic Daytona. My younger brother bought himself the stainless steel Daytona. I am the only one that is Daytonaless but hopefully once I put in the extra hours I will get there. .

Here are some pics.

Beautiful picture! Your brothers have a lot of taste (I especially like the RG Ceramic Daytona).

Nice pics, ta


Funny... I don't like chronos, or gold, much yet the new ceramic bezel Daytona really appeals...

Game Over! The Audemars Minute Repeater is a beast! I came close last year to selling off my entire Rolex collection for a Vacheron M.P. - Damn!
