Daytona caseback flatter?
The Daytona is my most comfortable Rolex. I’ve been looking for the reason(s).
I noticed that the caseback has a much larger flat surface (in contact with the wirst) than any other model (GMT, Submariner, Explorer, DayDate, Datejust, Yachmaster) Can anybody confirm/infirm? |

Yes, the Daytona caseback is thinner/flatter than the GMT and Sub.

The Sub backs are thicker and do sit noticeably higher, but the others are likely only a fraction of a mm higher because of this wider machined surface.

OP , do you own this watch? Have you bought the exact same watch which you have shown from the auction? If just referring to a General Daytona why show the Le Man Daytona. If you have done your research as you claim then why ask us... I said Fake thinking its your watch..

But being English (as you may be too) the "THE" in the context you wrote gives implication as to being yours! At best your post was misleading. That said the photo posted is NOT fake That's just a fact

Out of all the DAYTONA cases you choose one that is unique and highly fakes. It matters not to me if you edit it - people can decide themselves

I am adding an image from this source (not my watch): https://www.ablogtowatch.com/rolex-d...atch-review/3/ You moved my thread to "watch out". So it matters to you. If not, you would not have done so. |
