One out - One in 🐼

This is a move I’ve been strategizing and planning for several months. It took me a while I finally got the right numbers and example in place, thanks to my main man Takuya!

This is another example, of one amazing watch leaving for one arriving. Loved the black dial Daytona. I still maintain that it is the more versatile of the two, but the white dial has been constantly haunting me. I had to try it, and couldn’t pass up this opportunity to do so.

Here ya go my friends. My new 116500LN White Dial Daytona!

Congrats! Both white and black are stunning. It’s a hard choice to only pick one. I prefer white too but still really love the black. Hope you enjoy it!

Gorgeous captures, and the crisp white was the one for me too. Black was too similar to other ceramics.

Smart move Chadri! Taking two sequential bites out of the SS Daytona Premium apple so each bite can be more easily digested!

I'll be interested in seeing your OF bracelet swap on the white as I am contemplating doing the same when my SS Daytona comes in.

Congrats!

Absolutely a stunning watch. Love the white dial. Congrats. My AD told me that black dial was in demand the first few months the model came out but the demand for the white dial skyrocketed that they stopped taking dial preference on their waitlist.

That’s a winner. I have em as a virtual tie and really both is the only solution that made sense to me. Sitting on profit so rather it in 500s than bank.
