My car came with them from the factory, I only had to buy the OEM charger from Mercedes that connects with those magnetic ports.
So I found the cables in my glove compartment. I also found the connection in the trunk. But how do you get from the trunk to outside?

Congrats, love all Daytonas, but the 116500 in particular is a fantastic watch.

We have our French friend, socal, Martin is on a list etc etc. here's mine. I've also been on a list for white for 15 months. Would you believe that my salesperson from my two key molex/ golex ADs left so I'm SOL probably.

Will get the 116500 at some point, probably like many on here. 116520 for now, just back from holiday.

Thank you everyone. Enjoying the watch.

Didn't have a choice in dial. I was offered white so therefore I love the white!

As this is a much sought after piece with quite limited stock, at many shops in Asia you either pay over MSRD or have to buy with another ex-stock watch to get in front of many folks on the waitlist. very similar case to PP 5524!

Congrats on the Daytona. I too have the exact same as my only Rolex. I think it's the best steel Rolex at the moment.

Daytona is too small for me. But hey Lapince bought one.

Either way enjoy.

Kinda fun having Rolex incomings in PP...maybe some more need to happen.
Yeah, but decided to let my wife have it, it would not get a lot of wear with me, same when I had the 116515, almost never wore it, but nice watches, just much prefer my others
