Came home to find this had come in the post just in time for dinner with the missus tonight!

Fantastic looking watch, very happy with it! I had the WG model with rhodium dial before but the lumed baton markers just looked too sporty on it for me. And since it only got worn once in a while to dinner and functions etc I wanted to change it to something with a bit more pizazz. Absolutely love it!!

Looks great! I reckon they might have sent you a Gen by mistake!

If only mate! There are differences and of course the weight is miles off, difficult to spot the flaws though cos it's just so shiny and has so much going on!

Very nice Xepa, but a word to the wise: Don't pay more attention to your beautiful new acquisition, than you do to the wife (at least not whilst she's awake anyhow)! :D

Same mate, not long after I got the other one I wished to hell I'd gotten one with roman numerals instead so it's been a long time coming! They're incredible looking, very elegant. Lumed markers just look too sporty on a day-date, I'm not even that keen on them on the new datejust either to he honest.

May I ask what TD you bought from? I might want to go the same route. Looks like BP updated their Day Date 40 bezel. It's looks much better than before.

Intime mate. They updated the coronet as well, nicer shape to it than my previous one!

Why am I the only one that wishes they would fix the Day wheel :( 

Like the way the dial catches the light, very hypnotic!

You are not alone. It was one of the driving factors that led me to sell my old BP Day Date. The day wheel looked great on Wednesdays but drove me crazy on Fridays. Sometimes I left it on Wednesday just to save myself from the madness. Bezel was pretty bad too but it looks like this new, updated version is much better.

This is a non-sense question. Read the "new members start here" section at the homepage of the forum and you'll know why.
