I know 116500 prices have dropped significantly overall to the $30k ranges but it also seems like the Black dial is now often priced higher than the previous king White dial.

Is everyone seeing this as well?

Roger Lococco · 29 August 2022, 09:39 AM

Not seeing it for watches that are of the same year. White is always higher.

Not anywhere I have looked.

White commands a 5K premium.

myc ritz · 29 August 2022, 09:51 AM

no.

1665fan · 29 August 2022, 10:06 AM

Black 116520 and white are similar in price…..ceramic white is still higher

Benzsiam · 29 August 2022, 10:09 AM

Wake up, are you dreaming?

ltmgeller · 29 August 2022, 10:26 AM

Thats news to me

Mystro · 29 August 2022, 10:32 AM

I just did a quick check and that’s not happening anywhere even when models are years apart?

Black is the only choice in my opinion.

Fwiw the members that have had both overwhelmingly prefer the black from what I have read.

Chewbacca · 29 August 2022, 10:50 AM

All I’m seeing is a throttled production mass produced watch that has no business selling above MSRP no matter the color.

shaunylw · 29 August 2022, 11:17 AM

I have not seen any of this. Black has always been less than white.

OP - Where are you getting your information from?

iTreelex · 29 August 2022, 11:34 AM

Either way, the black daytona is much better than the white imo.

dnd2984 · 29 August 2022, 12:15 PM

Can I get 2 examples..

amphr1 · 29 August 2022, 01:07 PM

Wish that was true, at least that they are priced the same. While I buy into the hype at the current level for the black, I don't really think I can buy into a 5k increase for the color. If the gap was less than 2k I would be more susceptible.

CHRONOLEX · 29 August 2022, 01:20 PM

Prefer the black also. Much more subtle from a distance and richer looking up close. The white dial looks a little plasticky to me. Doesn't mean I wouldn't consider getting one though because it's beautiful too.

Very good assessment. I have the white and love it. My dad just got the black and it’s a stunner. It looks more rich in black, but the white just has that pop!

Well like say Daytona black/white dials some are more cost wise depending on country bought.

All things being equal… same year, same condition, same accessories, and same location… White dial Daytona is more valuable than black dial

TimepieceRPP · 29 August 2022, 06:26 PM

what is the point? Black 116520 was always popular and had a higher premium than the white before but now the white 116520 is higher than the black one. So, it changes all the time.

You’ve got a black dial fella?

Starwalker · 29 August 2022, 10:15 PM

actually in asia black had a premium and in usa/europe white had a premium - 116520.

with 116500 - white always wins.
