Daytona Dilemma

1st world problem I know....Torn between 116503 TT Black Dial or the 116505 Everose Pink Dial. Want a statement piece. Had steel Daytona’s before but is gold too bling ? Early forties with an addictive watch habit

Of the two, if you want to make a statement, I’d pick the 116505.

who cares if it blings or not...what matter the most is do YOU like it?

What if we all said it's not too bling, but you find it bling bling.

I normally really like Rg, but I dont care for it on this Daytona. Between these two choices, I would go for the TT with black dial.

Or pivot and get a YG 116508 with black dial and champagne sub dials.

For all Rolex models, TT vs PM, I don't remember when TT won last time.

Maybe the new CHNR Gmt might have a chance based on the recent feelings here?

Everose. It is so choice. If you have the means, I highly recommend picking one up.

TT, but make sure it’s not the one in the pic as it is missing the chronograph pushers

That’s what I thought it looked weird. Lol!
If budget allows I would go with PM RG Daytona, it’s a serious heavy piece.

Don't like the Daytona with a full gold bracelet, it washes out the watch head, looks better on a leather/oysterflex in PM In full rose gold with bracelet it looks like a fashion watch. The statement you make will be I'm wearing a Michael Kors....

If you are looking for a "statement piece", I'd have to agree with those that said the 116505
