WG Panda Daytona
What do you guys think of this WG Daytona w/ Panda dial ? I am thinking of adding it to my collection. It has really caught my eye--one of nicest combos I have seen yet!!

Ken, that is an absolutely stunning Daytona! Very classy, yet very sporty. I would say you should go for it!

That is currently the best looking gold Daytona, especially on the massive gold Oyster bracelet! Close to perfection. I whish the made the white dialled SS with black sub dials as well (and the black with white sub dials).

Like the understated sporty look of the WG on leather for me.

I love it! But I probably will never buy an all-gold watch.

In Europe we call it the "racing dial" , I LOVE it.
If I would buy a Daytona today it would be looking like that. Here the YG version, also stunning Picture taken from rlx.de

The YG is stunning....
Just not a fan of a Daytona on leather myself but still they are popular!

It is a stunning piece... i think anything that has black and red accent is going to get a lot of nods on this forum.

I've been looking at the YG and WG versions of that model with that dial as well as the bracelet models for some time now. You can't go wrong with any of the versions; but the leather, WG combination is a beautiful and sporty mix; no doubt.

Looks very clever. Probably a pricey item. No metal bracelet?

It's nice but I don't care for Daytona's on a strap.

I like it a lot.
I also like it with the slate dial. In fact, the gold Daytona has several excellent dial variations these days as well as that exquisite movement. A watch deserving of the term "Superlative".

Wow, first time I am seeing the slate dial on the WG Daytona. Does anyone know how the slate color variation is different from the dark gray matte-type dial that is also available on the WG Daytona? It appears as if the slate has a bit of a sheen to it...? |
