I guess I should love it, but I don't.

Now the Newman dial in YG on the brown alligator strap - :drool:

Well of course they do. About the only original thing they ever came up with was the apron.

Oh, never mind. I think someone invented that first, too.

They stole the color from Breitling. :lingsrock:

The Rolex meteorite dial is a bit busy for my conservative tastes. I actually prefer the Omega version.

That "Newman" Daytona literally makes my knees weak. It may be my favorite watch....period.

I'm also a fan of the Omega dial.

Now that Daytona is sexy, I like the white dial with black subs, much nicer than their standard white or black dials IMHO.

Totally agree, love this watch but it's priced way too high!

I meant the Speedy, and I was wrong - it's a mere $9300. So basically $3,800 for a dial. :oops:
