PM Green Daytona

Hi Everyone, I am considering a PM piece, I am thinking about buying this one, although I have not seen any incomings on this model for a long time. Please share your thoughts.

Beautiful watch. This one has a very low unworn/pre-owned spread similar to the blue WG. Even though they both don’t have solid color sub dials which I really like on PM Daytona, they’re both excellent choices.

Meets 4 criteria:
!)Its' PM
2)Green dial without being a 116610LV
3)Exquisite
4)A Daytona without the ceramic bezel

If the price is right----

I really like this watch. However, I’m not sure how much staying power it would have for me in the long run. Might tire of the green over time. Not sure

It's lovely. For me, personally, I could not rock the YG and the green dial gets tiresome (I once had a HULK). I much prefer the blue face WG Daytona. But you're not buying it for me, you're buying it for you. Get what you like.

The contrast of green and yellow gold is awesome.

Beautiful contrast between dial and YG on this one. I can't say I have ever actually seen one out in the wild before aside from an AD display case.

Needless to say, if you like green this would be an awesome watch for your collection!

If yg is what you want, it's very hard to top that one!

Its really a stunning watch. You might get tired of it, but chances are if you're getting a good price you could recoup it, as they aren't all that common are they? I've not seen one in person.

That gold and green go so well together. I have a skin tone that doesnt work well with YG, but even I would rock that.

I wish I could post pics but a long time lurker and recent poster. I purchased this watch this summer and it has grown on me and one of my favorite pieces now. I love how the the green pops when lighted correctly. My only complaint is the bezel REALLY scratches up and questioned if a ceramic would ever make sense or look correct.

I wonder myself too. Whether the PM models look better with a scratched bezel (which I can argue gives it more character) or a ceramic bezel (which may not be the same color as the dial).

I really do love the green dial. Ordered one back in August but decided to hold off and picked up a DD 18238 instead. I have the DD RG with olive dial as well as the Green Sub so I have green covered but it may be in my future. FYI...the one I ordered still has not come in.

There’s one or two members on the forums who has this watch.
It’s drop dead gorgeous.

I love that color combo. I wanted to get one but it was rare to be seen so I got the oysterflex golden panda instead. I hope you are able to get it; very unique!

I wear It pretty casually tbh.
I also rarely wear a suit.

I think this reference is gorgeous. I'd definitely go for it! Hope to see an incoming. Are you purchasing from an AD or grey?

This model seems to be pretty difficult to find, so curious what pricing is like.
