Re: Interesting Photo -- Jack Heuer LE Autavia / Rolex Dayto

Jeff,

I like both watches. It is hard not to like the Daytona. But...before we have a thread which gets carried away by people who say this proves that the Jack Heuer is too big and out of proportion etc, I should point out that Jack Wong has a small wrist. The context for the proportions therefore, is somewhat distorted.

I will just say that on my wrist...which is also probably a distortion in the other direction, the Daytona looks a lot smaller....and...to really start a fight...I have owned several Daytonas and I have ended up selling them all because I LIKE A WATCH WITH A DATE WINDOW!

Happy New year to all!
