I don’t think so, i just told them I wanted that watch with the strap switched out to an oysterflex, and they sourced it all and made it happen, in about 5 weeks, just shipped a few days ago.
Awesome! Thanks for the info…I just messaged Sead to see if he can make that happen…

Hell yeah, wore it out yesterday for the first time, feels great (I’ve got weak little girly man wrists, so light watches are for me), looks awesome, super unique, obviously you can tell it’s a Daytona, but a lot of double looks at the striking colors.

Is the clasp stainless steel ? Looks yellow in the photo. Enjoy that unique watch…. I can’t wait until I can wear mine… a little disappointed with the whole transaction but Sead is working hard to fix it….

So I’m still waiting for the Oysterflex from Sead…supposedly it’s been sent but don’t have tracking info yet….its been like 4 months since ordered….hoping to receive it soon as I’d love to start wearing this watch….original strap was too short
I also ordered a custom made brown canvas strap in my size from a vendor in Vietnam …will see which one I like better

So finally am able to wear my Daytona Desert Eagle Arabic…. Had issues originally with the strap being to short and unable to wear…. Sead was able to source it a brown Oysterflex with gold hardware for me and I also ordered a canvas strap from a 3rd party vendor in Vietnam … currently I’m wearing it with the canvas strap as that’s the one that arrived first…. Will switch to the Oysterflex to check it out soon…. But I’m loving this watch and how light it feels on my wrist and how cool it looks! Finally happy with what I considered to be my Grail!

Looks great on you man. Tell me honestly though. Getting your grail, having it in hand, it's underwhelming right? I sure as shit thought so when I put on my DiW Daytona. I kept thinking, "if I paid $60k for this, I would have walked back in and asked for a refund!"

I agree with you 100%…..i love the way it looks….but kinda feels like the Omega x Swatch Mission to the Moon watches…..but the price is insane…

I finaly ordered the Daytona DIW Arabic dial, and it's my favorite! I got the "best version," and I received it today. However, unlike my other Daytonas, when I take it off the wrist, I can really feel the movement of the balance wheel. I can even hear it in the carbon case. Does it do the same for you?
