Hi all,

Does anybody know for definite, if a Genuine OEM Rolex Ceramic Daytona bezel will fit perfectly on my 2012, G serial White Gold Daytona 116509 please??

Mrhenish · 26 May 2018, 04:11 AM

I have no idea but I hope it does so you can show it to us. It will look great. How did you get the bezel?

Snow-Dweller · 26 May 2018, 04:27 AM

I believe somebody here posted exactly this a few weeks ago...OEM ceramic bezel on a Daytona that was pre-ceramic.

Rolex addict · 26 May 2018, 04:29 AM

Send a PM to Bas. He's a technician at a RSC and should be able to help. He's been very helpful with a few of my questions.

emtee · 26 May 2018, 04:30 AM

Someone posted a thread where they replaced a non ceramic with ceramic so I think the answer is yes

79280_116520 · 26 May 2018, 04:32 AM

My guess is that it should fit since both models have same case size.

why the downgrade from gold bezel to ceramic besides the scratch-proof?

Duey · 26 May 2018, 04:33 AM

Alpino would know

TimeToWatch · 26 May 2018, 05:03 AM

Oh man, that will look sick if it fits.

Gharddog03 · 26 May 2018, 05:06 AM

How did you get a hold of a ceramic bezel??

richard371 · 26 May 2018, 05:26 AM

wonder What the bezel costs?

77T · 26 May 2018, 05:53 AM

If you have the complete white gold bezel assembly, yes. The case for the 116519LN is the same as yours except for the underside where the Oysterflex endlinks fit into it.

Otherwise, you wouldn’t be able to buy this:

But you don’t want to try to put that bezel you showed since it is a SS 116590LN. That could be a different issue.

It's been done before with the brown ceramic bezel from the platona. It should fit.

Haha...I’ve bought it from him. His had to go for service.

iqwertyi · 26 May 2018, 12:38 PM

Can’t wait to see the results. That’s going to look great!

arturob · 26 May 2018, 01:50 PM

post when you change it! I have a panda and would love to see the change.

coralfarmer84 · 26 May 2018, 02:00 PM

This combo with the red hands on the sub dials would be the nicest looking watch I’ve ever seen

If i was going to do anything i would put the ceramic bezel on the WG bracelet version of the WG OF watch. It has the same dial, but without the ceramic bezel

Cru Jones · 26 May 2018, 04:49 PM

Not sure I'd trade gold for ceramic....

Do you think the platinum Daytona would look better with a platinum bezel or the current ceramic bezel??

I think it looks perfect with the ceramic, but if it were OEM with platinum, I wouldn't change it.

As it happens. It doesn’t fit the 116509, it will only fit the 116519, and 116520

Not without applying extra pressure which he wasn’t prepared to do due to the high risk of the ceramic breaking.

Sure - it’s all down to personal taste IF you can make it fit. I was just demonstrating for OP that it’s been done by Rolex using their WG version of the ceramic bezel.

But as he found out the 116500 bezel is not going to fit every WG Daytona

Bet you are now getting multiple PM’s offering you $$$ to get that ceramic bezel out of your hands!

Oh my. Thank you for the wealth of information.

Andad · 27 May 2018, 02:49 PM

Just sand it down a bit..

Bonehead33 · 25 January 2020, 02:42 AM

I see this thread is a little old but did the OP ever sort it out?

I’m considering an everose chocolate Daytona 116505 but i know the gold bezel will scratch easily so if I can source a black ceramic bezel as on the 116515ln... but will it fit ??

Anyone done it/ seen it done?
