Seriously, I never thought I’d love this as much as I do. Just picked up my new 116519 from my amazing AD…. Can’t stop looking at it. The heft is just right! Perfect watch in all angles, for me. Love the panda look. 12 months’ wait. Finally a true panda Daytona for me….

There’s still HUGE love left for the previous bebé below (any Schitt’s Creek lovers?)…. but totally different watches!

And also lots of love for an estranged cousin…. Ok, ok, love my chronos!

the OF band is great; wear it in good health

bp1000 · 15 April 2022, 08:29 AM

Outstanding watch, congratulations

It’s as close to perfect as you can get with the modern Daytonas

I know this is heresy for a lot of Rolex Fanboys, but as an owner of the Daytona, it's my opinion that the Omega is better looking.

DC116710LN · 15 April 2022, 09:14 AM

Awesome - congrats! Does the WG Daytona wear larger than the steel? I've heard it has a thicker case and is longer lug to lug
