I have both the black and the white one, and a WG racing dial. There are times I miss the steel bezel. So I’d say keep that combination as I’m keeping my WG.

I have (and plan to keep) a black 520. Would not trade up for ceramic. But would definitely add a white 500 if I was offered one at decent price!

Rushne · 29 June 2019, 08:09 PM

Personally I’d take the ceramic any day of the week.
My father in law has the black 500 and I love how the light reflects off of the ceramic.

JSL420 · 29 June 2019, 08:47 PM

520 is the best looking modern Daytona imo

efthi · 13 July 2019, 05:51 PM

Daniel!! Almost everyone told you to keep the 116520 but you sold it after all but so was the lucky to get and know enjoy

Loving the watch thank you, good luck getting that 116500LN

Great shot!

IMO non-ceramic looks more PM.

At the speed of light.

madgpol · 13 July 2019, 06:19 PM

You have the best examples of both watches. I'd personally keep what you have.

brucethemanlee · 13 July 2019, 07:37 PM

I'd just add the black dialed ceramic

But if choosing 2 of the 4

I went with both ceramic :)

Keep, doing waste your time or patience. These days that one is just as rare as the LN anyways.

Kiddodoc · 13 July 2019, 11:18 PM

I started with the 116520 in black and traded it for the ceramic white dial. Haven't missed it. Waiting for my black cermic.

They are both the same watches except for a ceramic bezel and a few other minor cosmetic changes plus over hyped price.

Art 1 · 14 July 2019, 12:46 AM

What would the up grade be?

kans86 · 14 July 2019, 12:58 AM

I prefer my 520. That said the white 500 is also beautiful, but not worth the premium over the 520 for me.

ALF61 · 14 July 2019, 01:11 AM

I am totally biased towards the Panda, but I would keep that 520.

Lonson · 14 July 2019, 01:28 AM

116500

Nice combo! I have the opposite configuration:

doramas · 14 July 2019, 02:57 AM

Not ever. Do not do that heresy. You already have a ceramic

It's personal preference. I have a circa 2015 black face 116520 acquired at retail from my AD, and it's perfect for me. I would not trade it for a 116500 in either dial color. The only way I'd trade it would be straight up for a Platona. It's really that good. It goes with a bathing suit all the way up to a tux. 116500 -- especially white -- is less versatile in that regard.

But no matter what, it's a lot of money. If you have it to spend, get what will make you happy. That's really all there is to it.

RoyalOac · 14 July 2019, 03:45 AM

I had the 116500LN black, sold it, and bought a 116520 black

cts · 14 July 2019, 04:16 AM

Keep both!!
I prefer the White 116520 and the black 116500LN...
