Daytona Daydreams - ceramic bezel on bimetal & 18k Daytona for 2023? (mockup)

Hey guys,

Thinking about possible Daytona configurations we might see in the future, maybe as early as next year encouraged me to open photoshop quickly...

what do you guys think, how does ceramic look on these models?

this would work on WG at least, like steel + ceramic and platinum + ceramic

possibly make the ceramic a deep navy blue on WG Daytona

How about Tridor center links similar to the 80's Day-Date President?

I think this would look nice with the black dial. maybe white dial too. A little weird with the champagne.

Love it! I really wish they do it on a TT, but they would have to drop the price I think because it is much less gold.

Why you're here and rolex is there. I don't think we will ever see any of those. Ceramic bezel is reserved only for SS, oysterflex, and platinum models

The solid gold Daytona should have the ceramic bezel option as it is stunning with that meteorite dial…

I like your No. 2 all gold mock up …

Not so much the Two Tone with that dial …

Could you mock up for us (please), a

Two Tone
Ceramic Black Bezel
Black Dial
Gold Sub Dial Rings (not solid)

I’d do it, but I have no idea how to !!

In all due respect, the TT Daytona is nice as it is. The metal bezel gives it some elegance while the ceramic bezel lends to a sporty look. I know it is a "sport" watch, but in this case along with the full gold/bracelet models I think Rolex is doing the right thing by keeping the metal bezels.
