I just don't get it. Maybe they have a huge surplus of those stones that they need to get rid of little by little.

I like it. I couldn’t wear it, it’s just not me, but for some it will be the allstar of their watch collection.

They should have removed Rolex from the dial and replaced it with “Rolie” !

I think those kind of pieces are in high demand! The two other rainbow bezel Daytonas (YG and WG) sell for above MRSP now a days in the grey market.

Hey, why make SS Daytonas (you know, which waiting lists that go for years) when you can spend time at the factory making this?

Way to go, Rolex!

That is one FUGLY Daytona

They did two things that will differentiate this Rainbow Daytona from predecessors. First, Rose Gold - and second, slim baguette sapphire hour markers that match the color of the corresponding bezel sapphires for that hour segment. In the previous rainbow models they had been diamonds in a clumsy size.

If buyers bypass it in sales demand then it becomes rarer by natural selection.
