Good idea; we should rename this the Silly Name Forum! I guess we need to take this up with the Ministry of Silly Names.

My guess is that the "Godzilla" is the two tone Daytona in OP's world.

EDIT: actually, no way that they're sub 20k. I have no idea what this Godzilla is.

Agree but today if some put the same effort as some do about nicknames and investment value £$€ stuff.Then with the same effort put into learning something about the history of the RWC over the past hundred odd years, and history of the actual Rolex watches they are wearing.

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

Godzilla could definitely take down a Panda any day. They are too lazy to put up much fight. Godzilla has destroyed all of Tokyo a couple of times. My moneys on Godzilla any day.

Another vote for “no idea what OP is talking about.”

I guess this is an easy way for OP to increase his post count. This is yet another post by a new member asking general questions (e.g. not seeking advice on purchasing or servicing). Trying to figure out if this beats the posts with the single fuzzy photo asking “Is this real”? and when everyone chimes in that it’s not, asking “How can you tell?”

What is OP? Sorry i lost the thread a while back, so took some time to find back. In Asia, Godzilla refers to the stainless steel daytona in black dial, model number 116500ln. In case anyone else was unsure, a Panda refers to the stainless steel version of the daytona, again 116500ln.

Basically, both these 2 stainless steel daytonas dropped from a high of 65k usd to a recent prices around 45k USD.. in case nobody was aware.

Hope this clears.. and yes Black vs White.. i guess the classic dilemma. I have no intention to increase post count, nor do I even know the benefits of doing that.
