I got a 116500 black dial a couple of months ago, and absolutely love it, the size was perfect and the watch was great for both weekdays and weekends. Of course, I said back then I probably won't get a rolex any time soon. Way to eat my words within 2 months

So I decided to get a white gold version as well. Contemplated both the blue dial and this. And really fell in love with the color of this dial and its shine in the sun.

Davidsw was as always, great to deal with. Thanks a lot!

this is a great watch but i'm sort of shocked at this purchase.
all of the daytonas are going to ceramic bezels.

will you be bummed out when this is released on ceramic in 2 years?

No not really, i actually kinda like the "same color" bezel if you will. plus, if i realize i like the other one, i can just trade this and get that. no losers

Huge congratulations on a great looking watch. It’s the second one in two days and the 3rd if you count the one on OF.

by far the best dial on a Daytona since the 6263/6265. if only they put this on a non-Oyster Flex ceramic!

Excellent choice! Don't you just love the weight and feel of an all gold case and bracelet? I love my SS Daytona but something very unique about PM. Enjoy!
