I can see Rolex going with a Benz, both for old men who value perceived prestige more than performance :)

Now Beemers & Breitlings.... made to perform!

Excellent choice in the 01!

Daytona, good match with your Benz!

Let's see a pic of your 01 behind the wheel of your other ride!!!!

It's all good. One of the classier looks for the Chronomat and the Daytona is simply a great watch. Enjoy my Bimmer but I'd be totally cool with that MB in a pinch :wink: Like to have one for my wife but BMW has a better CPO warranty and maintenence plan at this point.

Well I guess I'm an old man the , but I recently saw the same Daytona on a guy and MAN on the wrist it is one of the sharpest pieces I've seen. Paled in comparison to seeing one in the AD display.

BMW maintenance is a joke here in Boston, it takes them 2.5 weeks to get a loaner car. With Mercedes, they have a fleet on lot ready to go! Anyways, I'll try to take a pic in our bimmer next time to satisfy some fellow members :P

Maybe it's because Merc sell less cars than BMW, so they have more cars available for courtesy.:twisted:
