New Daytona 126500 Appreciation Post and Comparison vs 116500

[karleone]

I've had my white 126500 for a few weeks now, and I absolutely love it!
I've always been a fan of the Daytona and have owned my black 116500 since 2018. It's been my daily beater for many years, and I enjoy wearing it on the super jubilee.

When the 126500 was announced a year ago, I wasn't totally convinced, especially about the new case design. However, after owning it for a few weeks, I find it to be an upgrade:

- The metal ring around the ceramic is stunning
- The thinner indices and subdials give it a more refined appearance
- The new symmetrical case boasts a bulkier profile with larger crownguards and lugs. Additionally, the new case and endlink design make the 126500 more comfortable on my wrist compared to the 116500 when on the oyster bracelet

Here are a few pictures.
