Saw this at AD

Randomly walked into an AD and didn't expect to see anything on display and then saw this one..

Quite amazing on the wrist.

And sadly, not for sale (at least not to me).

For some reason, I thought no AD would ever put this on display.

Agree. The SA said a vvip was going to come and see it so they put in on display

That’s fantastic, happy to see you got to try it on.

My AD here requires an appointment now, not as fun or spontaneous as it used to be.

To me that is the best iteration of the Daytona in any metal or movement yet.

Pretty cool offering from Rolex. I think it’ll be very collectible in the future, which sadly means it’ll always be quite hard to get one’s hands on. Glad you got to see it in person!

How is this different from an exhibition watch? We all know those get sold eventually.
