As a side topic: maybe just me but given the car racing heritage I'm of the opinion that daytonas should have leather straps. Bracelets may be on too, but rubber straps are for divers. Just my opinion. To illustrate that better this is what I do with my 116500:

Looks great on leather. Makes me want to put a leather on my 116500 too.

X2. Permed leather strap = motor racing lineage.

Absolutely, put it on a rally strap by all means, just not in the summer months.

Now if they would add some more dial options with color, perhaps sunburst blue, I will have my next grail
The sunburst blue came out last year on WG so I think it unlikely, esp as this year there has been a festival of blue on other models. I think these 3 panda dials are right on point. You a buyer?

I will be for a white gold, but I think I may give it some more time to see if they add any dial options. It may be a long shot, but I'd really like to see a WG meteorite c, grey arabic c, or a return of the ivory/black sub-dial panda c (all on oyster flex)

My immediate funds are going to a SS SkyDweller

really love the WG with the true panda dial. Too bad only in WG. Again would want to swap the panda dial into the SS model as in the 520.

Oh well, looks really good.
