So I am a huge meteorite dial fan - as those who know me from here will know.

I have the GMT and the day date 40 in meteorite dials.

I requested the meteorite Daytona from AD, on the day of release. I specifically wanted white gold as my other two of course are white gold and have waited patiently for this watch, untill it was discontinued last week at my dismay - it’s way too expensive for me to pay the market price on this.

So I rung my guy on the day of the Rolex’s launches, and expressed my dismay and was there anything he could do - although it was safe to say i had pretty much given up at this point. I asked to be put on the list for the new platinum Daytona instead - I love the new open caseback.

Fast forward to today - I get a call, he asks me if I’m sitting down. I thought maybe he was going to give me the first green sky dweller as I expressed interest in this watch.

He tells me - he’s spoke to Rolex Geneva and said he has a client who’s really disappointed about this watch they’ve told him they’ll see what they can do.

Guess what? He has a meteorite Daytona coming for me next week! I’m astonished!

Now I will say I did want the full bracelet version first and foremost was my request - this is the white gold oyster flex version. Of course I took it and it will give variety amongst my others. I’m absolutely over the moon!

Collecting in a few days time and will finally finally complete my meteorite trio!!

I honestly never thought I would get to this watch I’m overjoyed to add it to my collection :)
