Held new 116515 Chocalate Daytona! Pics
Local AD called me. It is AWESOME!!! I did not like the Ivory dial one I have seen before so I was not sure I would like this one. They just got it in. The next BIG $$ watch I ge will be this one. Very nice. Now I just need some BIG $$ :)

Let me comment: it is not as clear/easy to read as the ivory dial; BUT it has the same effect of some MOP dials; you have to see it in the flesh; although I do not like the colors/combination I have to agree that it looks amazing as you hold it.

You need to see in person. Actually not bad at all to read. Ivory might be a bit easier, but not easier on the eyes from a looks standpoint. IMHO

ceramic bezel looks great as does the watch overall. a different direction, but good execution by rolex on it.

Still waiting to see one in person, but from here it sure does look purdy as Dan said.

Beautiful timepiece, great fashion, but impractical readability.

It is gorgeous but I feel like it would be a pain in the ass to read the time. It seems it's very heard to read.
