Which PM Daytona

WG, YG or RG. Ignore platinum for this poll.

RG. My personal preference

It’s not what you’d call subtle, but it is slightly less flashy than YG.

Other opinions may differ.

It really depends on skin tone. Rose simply does not POP on me the way YG does. WG is all about the dial IMO.

I went with RG and a Sundust dial. But the decision is really up to each individual, as we each have different preferences. So get what YOU like, not what I or others might like.

YG on oysterflex. Love it in the black dial, you get hints of gold w/o being too in-your-face.

YG. Classic, elegant, and tons of fun to wear. However, if you're in an area you don't feel comfortable wearing YG in, then WG.

Which PM Daytona

Definitely a personal preference, especially with how the different metals complement different skin tones.

I recently went through this debate as I was looking to add a full PM Daytona. I tried all three gold models and couldn’t stop looking at the one in YG. I really like how the YG Rolex uses now is more yellow and has less orange tones. I’m not sure exactly when but I believe at some point they changed their YG formula. If I had done an Oysterflex model with the ceramic bezel I might have gone RG with the sundust dial. But for a full PM Daytona it has to be YG!

I’m not ignoring Platinum, I saw it over the weekend and it’s a stunner !
Heaviest watch I’ve ever held, and that dial - my word it’s a beauty ..
Failing that WG on OF .. either dial combo ..

i like yg for full pm, gives the bezel some character. For oysterflex i like white gold with the ceramic bezels best. No wrong choice though

You can't go wrong. Check these out:

WG Le Mans / RG black/gold / YG white/gold

Not in production anymore but one of the most elegant Daytonas - RG ivory:
