I wouldn't pay for the dial but if given one I guess I would swap it in, you'll make the ultimate Daytona for many.

It would look great with red sub-dial hands to match the red "DAYTONA" on the dial.

Exciting! I did it on a 116520 and Im very satisfied with the results. Got me wondering if anyone have made a "zenith" by putting the new white dial in a 116520
Looking forward seeing yours:)

It looks beautiful, and I'd love to see more pictures as well.

I'm still debating whether or not I like it better than the white dial...
There's something to be said about having some contrast against the stainless of the bracelet/case.

That dial looks good on a SS watch and will never be available as an option since it's for a PM watch. I hope Rolex offers a true panda dial for the 116500 in the future.

How did your source the dial?
