Daytona state of mind...
White for the day, black for the night?

Loving the new 126500LN's

Someone said here these wear more like the 40mm GMT, I agree.

The new black is just beautiful! Such a nice watch. The white is also nice but the black one

I agree. The old black looks cluttered with the bolder sub dial rings and the size of the indices .the new while looks sleek.

I have no preference. Every Daytona has been a sublime watch.

It's so interesting that so many are saying how the new model wears larger. When I look at pictures, I don't really see it. On-wrist is, of course, the only way to judge.

The newer is definitely a more refined and somewhat “superior” watch I.e. symmetrical lugs; better proportions but the quirkiness of the older ones makes them endearing to me

Same here. I sold off some stuff they got me (Pepsi and LV sub) that I don't wear to get the new white one from a reseller. Sucks for sure.
