That's a very sexy Daytona.....Perhaps the only non vintage Daytona I'd want to buy...

So did you get the rep?

Yeah, that rep isn't bad. Other than the crown being way too big, it looks good. I noticed Roger Federer slipped this same watch on yesterday after winning the tourney in Paris. Where did you get it and how much? Also, post some more pics if you have them.

I want it too... Where did you get it, how much, and what movement? Probably 21J, seems like most 1st gen reps are.

I did notice Robert's post, but I'm pretty sure Deja didn't get his from Robert. Also Robert didn't mention price and his come on metal.

That watch sure looks like it's worth every 7800 cents it costs. :thumbsup2:

I got the same one from TS, it's a great price, and a very pretty watch.

 

Only problem is, IMO, it feels a bit "fakey" on the wrist. Doesn't feel like a 20k watch in any way. It's very light, and the colours (which look great on the Rolex website; it's their feature watch right now) somehow look a bit "candy" on the hand.

 

Also, being a 21j movement, the chrono aspect doesn't work. The chrono hand actually shows seconds so is constantly moving, which is wrong (and there's no way to stop it).

 

Not dissing the watch, it's an absolute steal for $78, but I can't see myself actually wearing it.

I guess the problem for me is that it's a colour combo of the time, and I doubt it'll be regarded as a classic in years to come. Which means that you'd have to be seriously loaded to buy it as a fashion watch. And I'm not, so I don't feel I can wear it without it being obviously fake.

 

The $68 Noobmariner on the other hand (also from TS), is rarely off my wrist :)
