Thanks Dom!

Just a quick post to thank Dom for helping me find a watch I've always wanted, 1979 Rolex Daytona. Dom's service was top drawer and I'm chuffed to bits with the new addition to my wrist . Enjoy the Panerai Dom

Jealous!

Awesome watch, and pretty much my grail (a '77 one)

Get some pics up man, that's a fine watch!
The older Daytonas are a much more delicate looking watch than the current one & look all the better for it.

Agreed. MUCH nicer watch

Thanks will get some photos up shortly

Had looked at the current one but was a little concerned the vintage one would be on the small side (coming from a Panerai 217 which now adorns Dom's wrist). The Project X custom ones had a similar feel but in the end went for the grail watch. '77 would have been birth year but Dom had the watch and couldn't resist

You're the same age as me, and if I were in the same position with the same budget I don't think I would have done it any other way.

Top choice !

Hi Simon,

It's a great watch. Here's a shot from a photoshoot for Vintageseekers.com taken in a Triumph TR3 last Summer..



Enjoy!

Very nice!

That is a great watch - so much more elegant than the current bits of bling with the Daytona badge.
