I see a lot of people now all of a sudden going crazy for the Daytona Wg on the OF. is it a fad in Your opinion Or is this one of the best looking watches Rolex have out ? What’s your views guys ?

Helmi · 15 September 2020, 07:22 AM

It is a fantastic watch and very beautiful.

Big fan. Not sure how I feel about spending that much on a non PM bracelet, but it looks great.

watchmework · 15 September 2020, 07:25 AM

Heck of a good looking watch but I think for the price it should come with a bracelet.

42itus · 15 September 2020, 07:36 AM

It’s a very good looking watch. As far as the price, it’s right under $30K and one with the full bracelet is under $37. So you’re paying around $7K for 12 links. So in my opinion the price for the OF is justified.

I initially hated this one. Over time I have really come to enjoy it. The way the dial blends with the WG really makes the sub-dials pop. It
Is legible. It is badass. It is coherent. It is unabatedly sporty yet also luxurious.

I would like one, but am waiting for a bracelet iteration.

I like that mindset .. this is true

calebb90 · 15 September 2020, 07:41 AM

It’s been popular since release. Many forums members waiting months for it.

Great watch. Greatly overpriced.

macrowatch · 15 September 2020, 07:44 AM

Best Daytona, including edging out Platona by a hair.

Also, if paying gray for white dial, might as well just get WG at list price.

The snow leopard is a great reference!

Beautiful watch. Just received my SS white Daytona C from my wonderful dealer - and I have put in an order for the WG OF. I tried the rose gold and LOVED it. But the WG one is out of this world...

My AD said they will get it for me in approx 6 months from now - so hopefully by my birthday (Feb!) or who knows, Xmas!!

Yes that’s the new name for this .. love it

Onikage · 15 September 2020, 08:02 AM

Lovely. Rolex sports are bracelet watches. Always have been. I want an Oyster bracelet. Rubber being optional. Orrr an entirely new model on rubber. That doesn't look better on oyster bracelet. Unlike a Daytona. Just me. Still lovely.

jjfesq · 15 September 2020, 08:05 AM

I’d like to get that dial and pop it in a 116500

Love my 500 dial as is!!! Please stay away from mine LOL

daOnlyBG · 15 September 2020, 08:13 AM

Not at all "hype." The WG Daytona is the real deal.

The silver sunburst dial provides a texture and substance to the dial that's sorely lacking on the 116500LN. And unlike the 116500LN (and most modern Daytonas), the subdials are actually complete and filled in. Literally the only way Rolex could improve the dial is if they eliminated some of the text and made it a little cleaner. At that point, it'd look very close to the "big red" Daytonas of yesteryear, only with an improved bezel and improved movement.

The oysterflex just tops it off.

noshake · 15 September 2020, 08:23 AM

Very solid watch and hard to get.

JRell · 15 September 2020, 08:52 AM

I don’t know but that is a beautiful watch!

Tele59 · 15 September 2020, 09:09 AM

No hype from my angle. Who wouldn't love to snatch one of these?

hyperlight12 · 15 September 2020, 09:11 AM

Might be the best watch out there - love it - wear it all the time

startrolexendrolex · 15 September 2020, 09:14 AM

I think that's a hot watch for a while now.

I can't get warm with this watch. Something with the grayish or yellowish tone of the watch that I don't like. Much prefer the contrasts of the white 500C or the YG OF black/champagne dial.

ROLEXster · 15 September 2020, 09:37 AM

Love the watch ... but not a fan of the Oysterflex.

GVAZQUEZ · 15 September 2020, 11:53 AM

Beautiful watch my second favorite daytona behind the plat daytona.

Brian Page · 15 September 2020, 11:59 AM

Love the dial but would only get it on a bracelet

inadeje · 15 September 2020, 11:59 AM

The case, dial color, bezel and sub dials are perfectly matched, its a beauty. Sadly, I don’t like the OF band so it’s a hard pass. If they ever introduce that config in wg on a bracelet I’d buy it.
