It`s knowing you can`t just go out and buy one, (or at least without paying a premium). Madness I know but that`s the way of the world, the more someone says you can`t have something the more you want it. I also like what the Daytona stands for and in stainless it does wear well given I use it everyday and race with it. Obviously in an ideal world I`d like to win one but for the moment I`ve had to settle for buying one, luckily from Rolex at list price (and under pain of death not to sell it on !).
I suppose I see a stainless Daytona in much the same way I view a GT3 996. A lesser car than say a turbo but sometimes less is more.
And of course being a simple country boy how could I ever afford a Rolex in precious metal !

It's interesting that only the s/s Daytonas command a significant premium - often above the bi-metals, which are easy to get at around list. And white golds can be below list.
Original 'Paul Newmans' sell for a lot of money though.
Or, you can check out ebay and fool everyone for £50

I imagined the graph as you suggested. It started pretty high, and just kept climbing. Which part of the above was the unhappy bit? Was it the expensive hotel? The weekend in Milan with the wife? The Rolex bit? The bit where you were watching the GP live in Italy? The bit where you did a Bruce Willis on the pick-pocket? The few bits where you inferred that you really don't have to corral the pennies, as the pounds are going at it like rabbits?
