I have found it interesting that there hasn't been a full metal bracelet gold Daytona (Either white, yellow, or rose) with a ceramic bezel? The ceramic bezel has always been on stainless, platinum, or oyster-flex straps.

Why do people think this is?

MattyL147 · 2 June 2021, 06:47 AM

Because...Rolex.

because this way Rolex can string you along and milk every drop along the way
whet your appetite
keep you guessing
when Rolex finally releases a ceramic bezel with full gold bracelet Daytona, those with previous versions will still want it

I'd be a buyer.

Maybe they’re waiting for a batch of PM bezel/case parts to deplete.

I have white gold blue dial Daytona and both ceramic Daytona steel in black plus white
Also 116519 LN oysterflex Daytona

I can tell that if they put ceramic on white gold blue dial Daytona it will ruin the over look look and design flow of the PM full bracelet watch
It looks stunning right now !
Trust me Since I have all of the above

Rolex know what they are doing !!!!!
This way they get to keep the full PM bracelet day unique...

But then why ceramic bezel on platinum daytona? That’s the part that doesn’t go with above theory

thekman · 2 June 2021, 10:35 AM

Why no ceramic bezels on full gold daytonas yet they put them on oysterflex daytonas?
And why no oysterflex straps for steel models?

Things that make no sense to me

Because anyone who wants a full gold watch wants a full gold watch

No one knows but rolex

I'm sure we'll see it one day.

EEpro · 2 June 2021, 11:28 AM

Because Rolex has a massive stockpile of PM bezels to sell before switching over.

Jmbarrack · 2 June 2021, 11:33 AM

To me there’s a pattern with PM.

Oysterflex -> Ceramic
PM bracket -> PM bezel.

The except is the platinum Daytona probably for that reason alone, to set it apart from the other PM models as being special.

Merely an observation. But whatever the method to the madness is, you can guarantee they’re doing it for a reason only they know.

Agree with you on the blue and green Daytona dials only. For most other dial configurations, I prefer the look of the contrasting black ceramic bezel on the oysterflex models. To each their own.

I personally like the look of the gold bezel with the gold bracelet on the Daytona. Similarly, I like the look of the black ceramic bezel on the stainless steel Daytona more than the metal bezel on the 116520 series.
