Which entry level white gold daytona?
If i can manage it, I really want to go looking for a WG daytona. Something in the sub 40k range. Trying to make up my mind on which one though.....I already have a black dial 126500 so thinking something different then that.
2nd hand watches I've seen online dont seem to be going form much of a discount over msrp. |

Since you have the black dial then I would strongly suggest this one. It’s a beautiful combination and stunning in person. Another alternative would be the silver dialed oysterflex variant.

Online prices are not always representative of what pieces actually trade hands for based on recent personal experiences.
I've been trying to get out of a few full precious metal sports pieces (including daytonas). Dealers are offering 20-30% off msrp. |

Just for reference I have a full white gold daytona with a blue dial (unworn and fully stickered) that hasn't had an offer above 32k.

The blue dial 116509 is a winner or the racing dial. So that you have some contrast.
Post some pics once you decide. Cheers, |

For the white gold Daytona models, the best deals will be on the early 116509 variants. Some cool “racing” dial options are out there. I was able to find this one earlier this year. Couldn’t be happier with it!

Had it since 2017. Always a joy to wear. Might even be the Rolex I’d keep if I sold then all

Given you already have a SS Daytona on a bracelet, I’d personally be looking for an oysterflex wg model.

WG Blue dial would be my choice. Under rated.
Also, agree with the sentiment that it’s definitely not an “entry level” watch. It’s full gold!

Which entry level white gold daytona?
I believe the OP meant "entry level" among WG variants.
In other words, not exotic dials that are too pricey. For what it's worth, I agree with the folks who mentioned the 116509 concentric Arabic number racing dial. Very legible in the area one needs it the most since it's a bit of a busy chronograph dial. I had one in TT trim and liked it a lot. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Can you share some of these dealer's names? I am looking for a yellow gold Sub.

I would never buy an entry level precious metal Rolex. I would be mortified at what my fellow shoppers at Marshals and Walmart would think of me
