NEW Eye of The Tiger Daytona - 116598TBR
Hi guys,

What's your thoughts on the new EOTT Daytona on the diamond bracelet? Is this going to be the next speculative rainbow-esque daytona? Curious to hear your thoughts.

See on Chrono24:
https://www.chrono24.com/rolex/rolex...id20716264.htm



Thanks team

Please tell me this is somebody’s botched customization, and not truly a Rolex release.

(Excuse me, but I feel a little nauseous….)

Just because you CAN do something doesn’t mean you SHOULD. It’s awful.

I love diamond watches but this is just ugly. I could never wear this even if I got one at retail price!

To be fair, the Rainbow SABR is a fairly standard Daytona, but with a wild bezel.
But THIS thing? It’s glitzed up everywhere!!!
(Besides, John Mayer likes the Daytona, and that makes it OK!)
