droptopman Posted April 19, 2014 Report Share Posted April 19, 2014 Hi guys, since joining the forum I have really met some nice people and really enjoy this hobby. Thank you for being here. As some would know from my posts I am a big fan of MyManMatt. I have worked with him on several watches and asked him to build this custom Day Date for a friend of mine who really likes bling. Before you flame me or him, know that he can pull off a diamond watch. He is a very wealthy guy who owns a beautiful house and several nice rides, including a brand new S class droptop Benz that I think he plans to floss with this piece. I tend to be flashy and this is a beautiful piece, but is not my style. I thought I would post some pics before I deliver it to him. As always Matt is a pleasure to do business with and his work is always top notch. This was delivered with Box and papers and packaged beautifully. On to the pics: Can't say enough about Matt as a Watch Smith and a person. Just a first class individual. FYI, we know about the "Swiss" print correctness on the dial. My friend was not concerned with that. He is not really a "watch" guy. He knew he wanted a black dialed gold Rolex with diamonds and looked at some in Vegas. He was close to dropping 50K on one but sent me a text as to whether I could find something like that in a rep. That is how this project started. Matt was patient in sending many pictures and emails in finding the right combination. Thank you Matt. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rek001 Posted April 19, 2014 Report Share Posted April 19, 2014 Not my style but the quality of execution seems superb. I think I may contact Matt about a custom DateJust, should be a lot of fun. I'm sure your friend will be very impressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

droptopman Posted April 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2014 No he's not a rapper, he is a good musician but heavy metal:). He is more of an "OG". We used to do a lot of crazy things back in the day. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manny007 Posted April 19, 2014 Report Share Posted April 19, 2014 Didn't know there was such thing as a S Class drop top! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
droptopman Posted April 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2014 I forget the number but it is an S "cabriolet" with the AMG stuff. It is pretty small so gotta be 200 or 300 model definitely not a 500 size; although I did see a new full on 500 S droptop coming out in 2016. I am an Audi guy so I recommended the RS 5 droptop about the same $$ but he likes MB. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeeJay Posted April 20, 2014 Report Share Posted April 20, 2014 Not as gaudy as I'd feared from the thread title, and while not my style, a beautifully done piece, I'm sure your friend will love it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
