I love that Idea actually Thanks a lot Bryant ! by the way I met my friend today who let me tried on his steel daytona and it felt a bit smaller than the RG somehow however, the hairline doesnt show that much. Probably because it isnt my watch and unlike mine I'll know where all the scratches are

Yeah I tend to agree I think I'll prefer ceramic so I can wear it more often

Tried these on a few weeks ago at Singapore the sub is pretty solid first time seeing it in person quite amazing but for a formal attire the daytona probably fit better?

Finally!! After so much wandering around and going back and forth I've finally made my decision. To me it's my grail and after acquiring it there's no slight doubt in my mind thank you everybody for helping with the decision.

+1 as I have the RG w/ choc dial on a strap. For those who've only seen it in pics, they don't do it any justice. Looks far better in person.

OP - I believe the strap ties in nicely with the bezel and contrasts really well against the RG. Also, the strap is made from Alligator skin and supposed to be very durable. Google it if interested in more.

I really like rose gold on Black ppl. And the daytona gold and black dial given your complexion works better than the 116618LB on you IMO. Congrats!

I'm not trying be "liked." I'm honest and to the point. That's my role here. But don't take me too seriously. Thanks!

Love your selection!
As for the 116515, why no more crocodile strap option? That was so sophisticated. I get rubber for sport watch but really dresses it down.

You consider the oysterflex?

Check out the Rose Gold Yachtmaster IMO based on your worries.

YG anc black dial. I think time won’t bite it and it will look good on you for decades.
