Just stunning. I smile every time I look at mine.

What is interesting is how not once have I ever had anyone comment on it. In fact I tell a lie - I had a colleague ask me (having heard I was a collector of a few half decent watches) why I was wearing a cheap rubber watch if I had some good Rolex watches!

This may be an UK thing only, but I have yet to have anyone recognise what this is. Which I do rather enjoy! Contrast that to when you wear a Submariner, and my ... you get quite a few looks and comments.

I am also based in UK ( London ) as well , so far only 1 person made a comment about Daytona haha . That’s good thing about wearing PP that only some people who really do know about watch recognize it .

Congrats! That's one of the biggest reasons I got my 5167A it truly flies under the radar unless someone in the general public is a watch aficionado.

I agree it is very understated and does not attract any attention. When I work in the prison I used to wear an Explorer and few inmates commented on it so I started wearing the 5167A and so far no one had noticed it

I have to say that I get this all the time as well !! Some people which know I am a watch fanatic look at the watch funny when wearing a AP diver or PP aquanaut. They notice any Rolex though!

Canada thing as well

P.S ~ Congrats on the 67.... Next in line is the 64 ?
