At the AD today and saw rose gold president with diamonds

Picking up my wife Christmas present and our sales lady at the AD showed me the rose gold chocolate face day date with diamonds… 65600. Am I crazy that I loved this watch? My wife hated it (she said too flashy). I’m told there is a YG Daytona coming some day with my name on it but this one seems unique. I really want to get it… they wouldn’t discount this since it’s been there a day right? My wife will thank someone on the forum for talking me out of it… thoughts?

Love it can’t wait to see it. I’m also going through a gem set phase, and really love the dimensions it adds to a piece.

That’s awesome!
I think it’s much better with diamonds.

Everose DD with the Chocolate dial is a real beauty! Pretty hard to turn that one down. A big congratulations!

As for pictures......as Dave O mentioned, you have to resize the photo to upload. Either that, downgrade the quality/resolution. Do whatever you need to do to decrease the photo file size to meet the requirements. Maybe try taking a screenshot/screen snip as that usually will decrease the file size. Not sure if it'll be enough though, but give it a try.
