SS is sought after because it's cheaper than gold or platinum, not because it's better than gold or platinum!

... oh and +1 to this btw...

I read some threads about the fragility of the WG pushers. For you WG owners, are you sensitive to not use them often for fear of wearing them out to later break?

Everyone says WG in this thread, yet why are there still willing to pay the grey price for SS? Just means opinions in this thread are not representative of the market at all

I own both 116500LN’s and the 519LN... of them all.. I like the black steel and the white gold. Slowly getting rid of everything except my 64A, 15202ST with bespoke rotor from AP and my WG Daytona.

This forum (like any other forum) is not representative of the market. It's a place for enthusiasts who know their products well and understand their value. Do you think the average person knows there is a WG Daytona? Most people just want to be seen and belong, and the SS Daytona is probably the easiest way to get that recognition - being so popular.

116519 easily wins for me.
I can’t see myself spending more than 20k for a SS watch.
I do wish they offered the 116519 on an Oyster though.
