Any beach Daytona owners on here? Can a man get away with wearing one? Thoughts..

BillA · 31 January 2019, 05:30 AM

Don't know about the pink dial, but the green and blue OK

Kaioken x20 · 31 January 2019, 05:42 AM

Those models are so bae! I'd love to have one in blue!

Anybody know how hard it would be to get a replacement strap for one of these? LOL

Is this what you are referring to?

I know Ellen has the baby blue beach Daytona on baby blue leather strap. I don’t think it would look good on my overly hairy arms, but it looks great on her!

So what is a “beach Daytona?”

Tangier11 · 31 January 2019, 07:12 AM

The beach Daytona was offered a few years back. WG Daytona with matching dial and strap colors. Blue, yellow, pink and green

They sure did. Rolex actually had a short period of time where they brought out some wild stuff. Some I liked, some hideous IMO. (Leopard Daytona, Rainbow Daytona, Dials with flowers on them and so on

herts9 · 31 January 2019, 07:21 AM

They're fun. I liked the 70s California dials fron back in the day!

Chiboy · 31 January 2019, 07:24 AM

Wow, I never heard of these! Although their presence probably would not have impacted my Daytona hunt, I never even knew they existed.

DtownRRS · 31 January 2019, 07:28 AM

Well OK....

ArtNouveau · 31 January 2019, 07:30 AM

I don’t think they flew off the shelves. I remember them being in every dealer, then lots of NOS ones for sale for a few years.

Rolex Essex · 31 January 2019, 07:46 AM

I remember seeing a pink one on WatchFinder a while ago didn’t know there was a range of other colours available.

Think I’ll keep my RG Daytona on OF over those thank you very much.

I have to admit they are not as nice as the Platona….close though

Yeah, it's a good thing I didn't know about that Tiffany blue one when I was on the hunt!

Sure you can, despite the color a watch is a watch

As you can see totally different; I brought them up the other day in a thread on mods to a 116520 I believe it was. He turned it more or less into a blue dialed Beach Daytona by adding the Ice Blue Platona dial and a blue strap. See below:

I actually created two pretty individual " Daytona Beach" versions myself, Daytona needs colour !
( All dials OEM, whte strap as well, babyblue one custom made)

MK1

MK2

mr_gray · 31 January 2019, 06:18 PM

i think they both look great

andyxxx · 31 January 2019, 06:48 PM

The mint green and pink one look great. Rolex should produce a few more slightly unusual colour variants in limited numbers to give their image a 'younger/fun' edge

lhanddds · 1 February 2019, 12:10 AM

Maybe on the beach

I'd wear the mint green one

The question is, are you man enough for the Leopard one??

soran · 1 February 2019, 12:42 AM

I think the dials looks absolutely amazing. Are they porcelain? But I think it looks more appropriate with a full bracelet if a man should wear it.
