Probably the case and the face are where it beats the competition.
Read the manual on how to work the chronograph - you NEED to use the chronograph function, you need to press those pushers. Great thing about this chrono is it's ease of repair - and that is very important on a chrono - not trying to insinuate anything just that these watches get maintained in service and that they are meant to be used. Though I wouldn't change spark plugs wearing a watch like this and there is even debate about playing golf in such a fine watch, but watch winder or daily wear the watch needs to get moved.

Like too see a side on view of the pushers and engraving on the back.

Really hope you enjoy every moment of wearing this piece - a really great purchase.

You know why the date window is designed as it is ?
You know way more about these watches than i do, great to learn about!

My Daytona is in for service right now. Compared to the Daytona and my Submariner i will say movement doesn't seem as good, but the watch is great for a dressier watch. I keep all my watched in watch winders. Not quite sure about the date window. I'll read up on it.

Here are some pics, still have the plastic on the back.
