That does happen with some my friend.

There are many watches which left me somewhat cold on launch but then after a little time to digest and handle they became must haves for me. I do think watches can be very different in the flash. I do have to say though that being a die hard daytona fan and having always fancied a DD with ice blue dial this 50th Anniversary Daytona was love at first sight for me. I just thought the use of platinum the ice blue dial and hazelnut brown was absolutely genius and works so very well. This is why I’m not a fan of the gem versions which don’t have the brown detail on. Completely changes the look for me. As you may know I am fairly shallow and have always let my eyes and heart make my decisions for me.
With regard to the 5070p my friend I truly wish you had managed to secure one of these as a more deserving owner than you I can’t imagine. You never know my friend things can happen.
Thank you for the comments.

I always wanted a blue dial submariner. I loved the bi metal submariner at first but then as the years went on I found myself drawn to the solid gold transitional model 16808 with its vintage style Nipple dial. Ever since those days I have been a sucker f...

That’s good to hear.

Well, for me, here, I see two killers, the Daytona platinum and the 5970P.

The Daytona platinum, this is funny... I hated it when I saw the first official photos, then I totally changed my mind when I saw it in real... As for the 5070P, well, it was love at first sight, but never could grab it when it was for sale. Lucky you. Gr...
