I have a Daytona SS 116520 black dial, and would like to switch to another dial, preferably the Panda version. Would the Panda dial work with a SS model, or only best with the SS/18K 115523 or 18K models? Seems like the Arabic numbers and the Rolex crown on the Panda dial are highlighted in gold...

Your thoughts appreciated.

Grissom · 14 September 2013, 02:12 PM

I think it would look awesome! I'm sure someone will be around shortly to post pics.

The white gold panda dial looks great on SS. The YG one I don't think would look right.

Nice one Rolex Freak, that's the exact Panda Dial I was looking for - they are quite rare it appears. Thanks for sharing!

Great look! But then again, I'm a biased enabler when it comes to modding watches!!!

Yeah it works. Every time I change the dial it feels like a new watch.

seems like a couple of you have the yellow-gold version of the panda dial and matched it with the stainless steel 116520, still looks great!!

pathmeister · 15 September 2013, 05:03 AM

I guess any local watchmaker will be able to change the dial for me, what's the price range for such adjustments?

Urosfan · 15 September 2013, 05:11 AM

Nothing beats a good panda dial

Passionata · 15 September 2013, 05:32 AM

Any good watchmaker can do it who familiar with Daytona otherwise the reinstallation of compax hands may wouldn t be a fun for him.
