My friend has the prior black dial and we were able to compare side by side. The new is Much more finessed and balanced dial w/ the Zenith proportions. The prior Black ceramic looks "horsey" next to it. Even he agreed and wants to trade his old black for new black. |

It’s the best watch in my collection. I prefer it to my white Daytona and my PN on OF.
Enjoy it! One of THE best in the Rolex lineup IMO. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I couldn’t disagree more. The new one is less durable … bezel ding (polish) magnet with a copy dial to the Zenith. I prefer the look of the 116500, and it is far more durable. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I'm not ready to ask for and expect to obtain a Daytona yet, but I cannot choose between a black or white dial, nor do I need to yet. But they're both beautiful and what a great problem to have! Choose what speaks to your heart and charge forward from there. Who TF cares about detractors?

To each their own. At the end of the day, they're Both fantastic watches. I just prefer the new reference and think it is MUCH better looking than the old.

And your friends are?? just let it die bro.. And yes for what ever it’s worth I agree everyone has opinions. However OP was not asking for an opinion he was just sharing with us a watch he has been after for several years. Let’s show support as usual fellas, have a great and safe weekend TRF Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

But I know exactly what he meant and felt when he said that because that's how I felt too when I received the black dial 116500ln. I quickly traded it for the new black dial reference 126500LN and it felt like Moses parted the Red sea all over again. It is one of the most beautiful watches, let alone Daytonas I have ever seen/experienced. Did not mean to offend. Have a wonderful rest of the week everyone |
