Thanks for the photos but I just can't deal with that color scheme. It looks like Fisher-Price was involved in its design. The big numerals around the dial, black and violet coloration...it just looks tacky to me. Way too much bling happening for such a classic Rolex watch! From tool to jewel...

Thank you for sharing with us. It does look a bit busy and did someone say$ 27,000. Ouch....did't that have a leather strap, no bracelet?
I can do with a three or 4 hand quite nicely, don't really make much use of a chronograph.

I tried this watch on in early June while at the London gtg, I thought it was incredible...
 Unfortunately I'd probably get something else in that price bracket... |

Should increase the desirability of the older models significantly.

I think the ceramic looks great on the Daytona, thanks for the pics, you have to be one of the first to have been able to try this beauty on

Nice, but will never replace the SS Daytona IMHP. I am also a bracelet guy have never been big on leather bands. I have a small wrist and bracelets just seem to fit better.

It is definitely different and it has really grown on me. However, the price is a whole different story.

Wow. I think I would have had one of the clerks distract my wife long enough for them to run my credit card! Really nice looking.

The chocolate dial looks much better in person. It blend VERY well with the rose gold. I do agree it is a very "flashy" watch. I think the black ceramic on the white dialed stainless will look very sharp and give it that Paul Newman look. Hopefully those will be coming out in a couple of years. I would guess TT next year and stainless the year after

That's so nice but I like the ivory dial too and it probably more practical. Nice post you're very lucky

Not a big fan of gold, but I gotta say that thing looks pretty cool. I don't think I could pull it off though...
