New Dial Options 116515 Ceramic Daytona - Owners share your pics!

Is anyone aware of an update since it's release? A couple of Basel's have since passed and I was wondering as I am keen on picking up either the classic everose Daytona (full gold bracelet) or newer everose ceramic bezel version.

My preference is towards the latter (will be my first PM watch and given that I'm in my 20's - and still going places I shouldn't - im not sure that full gold will always be appropriate in some day to day environments).

So life story aside, what is holding me back from going with the ceramic version is the lack of dial options (at least according to Rolex.com). I did try on the chocolate dial when the new model was released and liked it... But I much prefer the black/RG subdial and pink metallic/black subdial options of the full everose Daytona (non-c).

Does anyone know whether the AD brochure may have been updated with new dial choices?

Has anyone switched dials from the everose model to the ceramic model? Perfect example here: (pic from google)

Finally! Please share some wrist shots for inspiration everose Daytona owners!!

Looking forward to seeing them

Nice pic! So you have ordered that dial option directly from the AD? Can you confirm whether there were any other options apart from the standard chocolate and beige options?

I prefer the chocolate version to the beige dial but combining the everose daytona dials are an even more beautiful option imo.

Any others out there?

There is not much dial option in ceramic bezel Daytona and I wasn't aware of this dial option until I looked at the watches in Chrono24
Mostly, chocolate dials they are very common

Recently, I was shown a rose gold 116515 Daytona with a black dial.
It was originally sold by a USA Rolex AD and the black dial was specified on the USA warranty card.
I think it was purchased as a special order from Rolex USA.
It is my favorite of the 3 dial options available for this Daytona model.

4 options are chocolate, ivory, black and RG dials, all on strap. As I've said before I don't think any ceramics will be put on exisiting braceleted Daytonas until sales start to fall and force them to shake up the Daytona image which up to now still has that mystique about them with the public that Rolex probably do not want to interfere with.

Thanks to mark and Neil for your help. That's great news! Ceramic on leather with the RG dial (or possibly black) and may get a rubber B strap if the latter. Really good news!

Any owners out there please post! Chocolate and ivory dials also welcome, and why not everose bracelets whilst we're at it :)

The photo of the Daytona with black dial and ceramic bezel in the Jag is mine. It's a recent addition to the everose Daytona collection. I own a small collection of great new and vintage chronographs, but this is my favorite by far!

Oh wow! Now THAT looks great. I didn't know such a version existed. Clearly there are a few versions out there. Keep them coming!
