Love rolex spotting in NYC

Was getting my shoes shined yesterday at Penn Station when I looked at the guy seated to my right. He was wearing a new ceramic daytona with the chocolate dial and it was awesome. Wanted to say something, but figured I'd just get some weird look and decided to just sit and enjoy the view.

His shine was over about 3 mintues later and mine was finished not long after that. Went to the cashier to pay and then noticed the guy who took my seat to get his shoes shined. He was wearing a 11610LV.

Walked out of the shop with a smile on my face as it was a nice way to start the day.

Have a great weekend everyone.

Datejusts on every corner here in NYC, under everyone's suit cuffs.

It's the european tourists and townhouse owners on Madison between 59th and 86th St. that have the crazy expensive watches for the most part.
