SS white dial ceramic. Can't think of anything else I've waited so long to purchase...

I've never really warmed to Daytonas, although the new ceramic Oysterflex ones look good. I was impressed by the weight difference between the 116520 and 116506 when I handled them side-by-side - the platinum is amazing!

Black 116500 and white 116500 my two favorite. If I add another it will be the WG on Oysterflex although the YG champagne black is pretty hot too!

Superb pic, I'd probably just take this over the WG OF, as I'm not sold on the OF yet.

Those would make an amazing trio. I agree, the YG is also amazing.
