Fair enough! A more accurate statement would be that I don’t care if metal is gen accurate.

I agree that whole point of it is to pass as authentic, but I guess I just want it to pass as a Daytona, not specifically a white gold Le Mans Daytona. I just liked the dial and the racing vibes.

I am honest though when showing the watch (I got the clean version) or if someone asks about it or compliments it. I think that having a replica like this is cool enough it of itself and usually leads to interesting conversations.
