Unidentified DaytonaC

Hi all,

I'm reaching out to you as I was lurking around in a Rolex BTQ yesterday and came across a model that I had never seen before...

I was with my father and didn't want to bother him by engaging with the SA. Didn't feel comfortable grabbing a pic either. Not much to work with therefore...

Basically it was a Cerachrome Daytona on oysterflex.

The dial was white with the normal indexes/markers. Subdials were however entirely white. Both the inner dial and outer circle.

The most ressembling model I found was with a diamond marker dial.

Any info on this particular model?

Thanks. Greetings

What colour was the case?

A white MOP/diamond dial is all I can think of that would match your description?

That was also what I had in mind first but it wasn't the white/mop dial.

Case was Stainless/White Gold. Not sure as it was strangely lit...

Bumping to hear answers.

Called the store.

Unfortunately the SA was a total donkey... Basically told be it was a yellow gold with olive dial.

I let it slip and figured I'd call back later and hope to talk to another person.

How was the lighting in the store? Could it possibly have been rose gold and the lighting made it look white?

Yeah...lighting plays a huge factor with the appearance of many Rolex dials.

Just to finish this thread finally found the Daytona in question.

In the end it seems it actually was a baguette dial...

Sorry for the useless post.

Picture credits go to SearChart.
