I'm a big oysterflex fan - when it's sized right it wears like a dream. The dial is so much nicer than the steel pieces in person. So dynamic. It is almost a love letter to the 4 digit's of old (6263 panda etc). The weight is special but being white gold it goes completely under the radar. It's definitely a watch that "if you know, you know." I'm a big fan of white gold because price wise it's more accessible than platinum and white gold has a warmth that no other white metal has... titanium is more grey, platinum is pure white and bright, and steel is steel. The warmth of it is amazing. I feel with the mainstream popularity of RM, Patek, AP, etc and the amount of aquanauts (5164, 5167, and 5168's.. and some 5968's) I see around town or at the office (when I rarely go in) this one is more special. I never see it, is more robust, and in many ways aligns with my lifestyle more. I love motorsport and I hate date windows etc. The chrono having screw down pushers a bit annoying but I do take this in the ocean and it's great.

I’ve had a handful of steel Daytona’s over the years and they never stuck around. This one I’ve had over a year now and it’s work nearly daily!

Great to hear! I know why I like it, but

Of course!

I like the combo. Will post my shot once I get to collect my daytona from my other home overseas.
