Beautiful... I do like the look of the OF - but was wondering does Rolex offer a leather/alligator strap as an option? Probably not. I assume you just would source that on the 3rd market. I wonder what this would look like a nice padded alligator strap. (I might miss the bracelet also.)

I'll add one other note and a shout out to the Underwoods in Ponte Vedra. The seller didn't have the right size Oysterflex segment I needed. I sent the watch and was going to send the bracelet part (D size) separately.

Cut I called Underwoods... they had one and because my watch was in like new condition they swapped it out for free. That's good customer service for someone who isn't even a customer yet.

Just don't know how to justify owning Ghost and not wearing it all the time. :)
Snap …
Paying up to avoid another £1200 ish on Saturday ..
From all I read they daily as the OysterFlex is so comfy, and of course a stunning looking watch ..
I don’t wear mine enough, so can easily be one and that’s it ..
for now ……

If you can get from AD, then sure its $30k. They're Not readily available. For most people, it's $40k (grey)

Anyone here regret trading up to the WG Daytona from a 116500 or 126500?

Yes and then the full gold is about $8k more at $48k. So different price points.

Wrong. Plenty of modern WG, RG and YG day dates at $40k grey. I even see All gold Daytonas for $35k-$40k as well. Do your research buddy.

I’m not in the market for these. So yeah I didn’t research it
