Godzilla vs the Panda

I know the panda is the most popular watch out there, but how many feel the Godzilla is not getting enough attention?

Nonetheless probably a good time to pick up one now, since prices have dipped 20k!

I think the black dial looks much better in person than the white dial. More elegant, sharp and versatile. Just my opinion, and I have had both.

Don’t know what OP was referring to, but this is the only “Godzilla” I know of in the watch world…and it is amazing.

Godzilla seems to refer to the black dial Daytona. Definitely not a popular nickname, I also think of GS for Godzilla.

Not sure what planet you are living on but this watch is not called Godzilla and I’m totally unsure as to which currency you are referring to when you say they have dropped 20k.

Godzilla appears to be a obscure nickname, but why? I have not a clue.

Another childlike silly name for a Rolex watch today for some Rolex watches are becoming more like Mickey Mouse watches.
