Incoming!!!

Looks like I’m the third person today to post about an incoming Daytona on Oysterflex. Happy to join the ranks with my 126518! Previously owned a 116503 but wasn’t happy with the durability of the bezel.

I had originally been eyeing one of the golden dials, but after seeing the black in person - I was sold. Took 4 weeks after trying it on at my AD to get the call that it was mine.

Needed to swap one side of the strap to a smaller size which they luckily had available. Otherwise, the glide lock would have been at the smallest setting.

I just saw one of these in the wild for the first time. Really nice in person. I particularly like the golden dial with black sub dials on oysterflex. Love the casualness meshed with the luxury of yellow gold. Amazing piece congrats !

I sir, am one of the three with the new 126518 and what you just picked up is what I tried on first and absolutely love the yellow gold black dial. 10/10.

Huge congrats

That looks amazing. I think this could be the nicest version. Nothing is prettier than yellow gold and black.
