Would you be more, or less interested in a PM Daytona with ceramic bezel?

Obviously asides from the platinum Daytona, and oyster flex models, all the gold models currently have gold bezels. Would you be interested in they put the ceramic on full gold models? I have no doubt they would be a big seller and I think it would look great but would I want to give up the gold bezel I’m not so sure, what’s your opinions?

Since you asked, less. Why? Pretty simple, just personal taste.

More interest! Yellow gold, black ceramic Bezel, jubilee and white a dial would be perfect.

I think full PM models should keep metal bezels. But, TT models should transition to ceramic bezels... and they would be a huge hit.

Would prefer ceramic bezel, specially if they do them in matte finish

I would prefer ceramic. I think it enhances the look and is more practical in durability.

I like how it is. Full bracelet and I would like full pm case too.

Oyster flex is way more casual and therefore the ceramic durability fits perfectly.

I think they nailed it as it is. The wg steel dial and yg black dial champagne sub dials are incredible

Platona is the only outlier in this analogy which of course does look stunning and probably paves the way for a ceramic update on other pm too , sadly,

I’d be more interested in making it a true 40-41mm ;)

Less. I think it’s a great setup currently with the current bezel with bracelet and ceramic with OF.

I would probably say more, I think it would look quite good and would give it some more durability.

More. It helps it wear 'larger' for those of us with a bigger wrist.

more for me. Should also be "cheaper" since less gold, no?
