White gold Daytona ref 126509

Anyone get hands on this latest white gold Daytona, the modern one that resembles the 6265 the most. I saw just some behind the glass display pics from the show and this one from Fratello website.

This was my favorite of the new releases. It's on the list but haven't seen it yet.

Seems to be very popular reference amongst the new Daytonas. Especially once you look last the new steel and Le Mans versions.

If you put a ceramic bezel you basically get the Le Mans Edition with slightly different fonts on subdials, and bezel in metal is the thing I like mostly on this one.

The more I look at them, the more I like the 126509 better than the LeMans...How much easier will it be to get?

Much easier. Just ask and you should get it with your purchase history in a couple months

I put myself on the list at first sight in WW 2023 launch. It is THE dial configuration I've been waiting for.

This watch but with the "panda" dial reminds me of the first watch that I fell in love with, my grandpas 6265 Big Red silver dial. Now I'll have to put in some extra hours to get one!

Great reference. I like the ceramic black bezel more but this one is also stunning.

It's almost the same for me. The more I look at the chrono24 prices for the le mans, the more I like the 126509

When the pics were released I was keen but I handled one at an event with all the new watches I didn’t like it so much. Hard to explain but wasn’t as attractive in the flesh. Needs a ceramic bezel as some have said.
