On link price the new FOiS sits somewhere between the other Professional models in the lineup a little less than a "Sapphire Sandwich" link and a little more than a Hesalite Speedy 7900. At that price you get a steel flat link bracelet with the easy-adjust system it's a bit less on a strap. It's not a limited edition but I'm guessing it will link be pretty tough to get for at least a few months.
If this Daytona can't hold the mantle link of the most expensive Rolex or most expensive Daytona ever sold by virtue of its famous sibling how does it stack up Within the fairly narrow context of other ref. 6263 Daytonas this one now ranks number one ahead of the yellow-gold Legend ref. 6263 link which Phillips link Geneva sold in May 2017 for 3.7 million. It's still below another very high-profile Daytona the ref. 6265 Unicorn in white gold which sold for 5.9 million.
This movement has very similar specs to that of the link Miyota 9015 which I link have had in several watches over the past few years and have never found any reason to complain about.

Chopard is one of a few independent family-owned link watchmakers that still exist in Switzerland today. Many of link the others are bigger or at least more recognizable.

Similar to the Fisher-signed 2447D above this second-generation 2447SND features a decimal scale on its outer track. Like those first-generation Carreras the dial is link rendered in two tones giving link the scale link contrast to the rest of the panda dial's sunburst finish.
Sea-Gull and CIGA Design developed a new gear ratio link where the hour hand represented by the earth rotates in 30-degree intervals and the minutes ring completes a full 360-degree rotation the 12-hour scale on the periphery of the dial does not link move. A compass rose fixed to the globe itself functions as the hand link for both the hours and minutes. For instance the time in the above image is approximately 725.

As many know I am a lover of vintage Movado. Less known is my appreciation of college football.
