Rolex Daytona Ceramic on women
Hi everyone,
Just wondering if anyone here has a wife who wears a ceramic Daytona? Specifically a black dial? Ever since I got mine, my wife has been asking to wear mine... as of recent, my AD called to offer me a black dial. They are still holding it for me until I make a decision as these do not come by often. I know my wife prefers the white but would wear a black dial. I am just curious to see if anyone has wrist shots before I pull the trigger. My wife has tiny wrists. This will likely be her Christmas present so I am not going to ask her for her opinion as I want to keep it a surprise. Thanks in advance, Jim Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |

Get it. Wear the black one yourself, give her the white. Matching couple watches.

That’s what I mean though, most women who wear Daytona have White dial as opposed to black. Black may not be the right choice for a woman? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |

I had both white and black 116500. Honestly I preferred the black more so i let go of the white. My wife favored the 116520 white over the 116500 white, so i let her keep that.
A lot of women - at least those who choose to wear a daytona - prefer the white version. But ive seen some women wearing black subs so a black ceramic daytona cant possibly be that bad. |

Female here... I really want the black ceramic for myself and have the same questions. I wasn't going to actively search for one until I was sure it looked good on a smaller wrist as well.
So if anyone has pictures of a woman wearing a black Daytona C hit me up!! |

Also a female here and I've been trying to get my hands on the black or the white. I also wear larger watches. Hulk BLNR and a gold Sub.

I’m female and wear a white 116520......have yet to see a white 116500 in person but I’ve seen and tried the black 116500 - not a fan.

Just an update, we passed on it. We’d rather wait for white dial.

Just like a male wearer, I believe a woman would have her own preference also.

I think that women prefer the white because it is more feminine than the black dial.

My girlfriend also loves bigger watches on her super skinny wrists. I think it looks really odd, just when looking at proportions. But to each their own.
If she can rock it then I say rock it :)

Irina's got the right idea, gold over ceramic every time.

Ronaldo won the World Player of the Year tonight, his boy looks very handsome and like him, and the blue Nautilus is so hard to get even Messi was wearing a white one.
