Rolex Daytona
Hay Guys
Anyone know what the new retail price is on a SS Daytona and has anyone heard that rolex may be adding a date to the watch in the near feature

It's only 9200 dollars if you're sleeping with your AD.
It is 12000 if you are just a normal customer

I like the comment someone on here made one time that if your wearing a Daytona, who cares what the date is. (or something close to that)

Gotta agree with ya on that one the Daytona never had a date and Rolex would totally spoil the dial design if a date was added on it imo.

The current daytona dial is already too full of dials and text....i totally think they should reduce the amount of text on the face...

adding a date would just make it far too busy for a 40mm watch

Don't expect a date feature on the Daytona until the moon turns blue.

Are you sure Tony? Wouldn't it look good to turn one of the sub dials into a date feature with a big ol' cyclops on top?

IMHO.....If they could fit it between the 4 and 5 o'clock position....It would be HOT!
