Yea….In general “The Daytona” brings out strong emotions for some. Those emotions can run the gamut from rage, jealousy, defensiveness, joy, etc….

Yes this was a mic drop and walk off the stage, not to return….. while all of the TRFers are screaming for encores and details

I've seen another member wearing one, but I don't think there was an incoming post.

I've seen another member wearing one, but I don't think there was an incoming post.

I think in that case someone saw it/ tried it on at AD and snapped a pic

[Rebel]

Very nice.

[Guppydriver]

Epic. I wondered how long it would take to see this incoming. I would love to know if this was a retail or secondary purchase.

Congrats op!

[PandaLover]

OMG WOW

[Pw92676]

Fantastic!!!

I saw DavidSW has one for sale for $272k!

I can’t imagine they made more than 100 of these references and many ADs have these shoe horned away!

Waaay more than 100.

I've seen plenty of these floating around, in fact they've been extremely common lately, for a "rare" Rolex

Owners seen wearing in public that I know of:

- The OP - of course
- Ben Clymer - Hodinkee
- Mark Webber - Ex F1 driver
- Jenson Button - Ex F1 driver
- Jean Todt - Ex F1 manager
- Tom Kristensen - Le Mans 24hr 9 times champ
- Mark Wahlberg - Actor
- James Martin - British TV Chef
- Tom Brady - Naturally...
- John Mayer - Naturally...
- Roger Federer - Naturally...
- Jamie Carragher - Ex-Football Player
- Jimmy Carr - Comedian
- @Poolie - Instagram
- @dearartifact - Instagram
- Alberto Galassi - CEO of Ferretti
- Tommy Hilfiger - Fashion dude
- Scott Disick - Professional idiot
- Piero Ferrari - Son of Enzo
- One confirmed customer of my AD who I cannot disclose
- Prince of Brunei; Abdul Mateen

If you think that I know of exactly where 21% of the entire supply is I don't know what to say haha

If I had to guess, I'd maybe say no more than roughly 1000? Possibly more

WOW, Congrats!

[OTH]

Amazing. Now that’s seriously impressive!

[TEPSD4K]

Exceptional homage to the origins of an icon. Congrats.

[MYK]

Wow, huge congratulations! I don’t know how you would want to wear anything else now. I have been getting less interested in Daytonas, until this one was released.

[Hollie_Rollie]

Congrats! Wear in good health!

It's only a mic drop if bought at the AD. Any of us can call DavidSW and get it at the crazy market price right now. Marky Mark got his at the AD. Same with Brady.

I don't know about you, but I for one don't have $300k set aside for a LeMans, and I think the market price makes it also unattainable on the secondary market for most of us.

[samson66]
