Friends, I'm proud to announce that I have moved from silver Daytona club membership up to gold status, thanks to ocrolexguy. My YG PN is here! So I'll get cracking on the pics. I'm not the best photographer but I'll try.

I'm glad this owners thread is taking off. T-shirts and ID cards are on the way. Hope you all like my membership tiers:

SS Daytona = Silver member
Gold = Gold member
Platinum = Platinum member
Vintage Daytona (pre-16520) = Foundation membership
And five or more pieces from one tier moves you up to the next level

I'm planning our annual meeting in Las Vegas and we will need sponsors for the golf outing so start hitting up your wealthy friends and Foundation members.

All feedback is welcome regarding our official thread or my mental health concerns...lol. Have a great day fellow Daytona-lovers!
