Icon5 Thoughts on the YG Daytona w Christmas Dial

I popped in to the local AD to just see what they had, and saw my first 116508 YG Daytona with the Christmas, green dial. It doesn't disappoint.

Thoughts on this model? Any significance to the green dial or just a standard Daytona model - although it is amazing to see in the light.

Love the dial but I personally am not a huge fan of the all yellow gold watches

A good friend of mine bought one last year. It is a beautiful reference for sure, just not for me.

I'm an old man...but I still think it's pretty hot.

Seriously, I wish they would give the LV-c the gold treatment. I'd be all over it.

50/50 for me. I personally think the two clash yet it is a good emerald green.

I couldn't care less about Daytonas. That one I'd wear in a second! Beautiful!
