Daytona 11650-Black Dial, let’s see your pics!

Hi Folks

I bought the ceramic Daytona black dial and it’s sitting in the AD’s safe till they open up again. Miss having it on my wrist. Share your fav pics of the watch if I’m you can. Will really appreciate it!

How/why is it sitting in the AD's safe if you were already bought it + were wearing it?

Hi guys, like the black dial daytona. But on real life is it really difficult to read?

The Daytona’s are amazing watches. I lusted after Daytonas for years before I bought one. What I really love are people who post they don’t care for them, they wear too small, etc etc....I believe they are the ultimate perfect designed watch...the wrist shots of the black and white dials are amazing. Congrats!

Took me over 20 years to go from my first Submariner to the YG Daytona with a lot of trading in between...

Don't wear it much and keep saying I would move it on.... However, every time I see it, my heart just won't let me sell it and I would know I would regret.

Based on the pics, seems like that the sub-dials and chronicle hands have an amazing interplay with light...amazing pic!

Is there a reason why you dint wear it often? Appreciate the insights.

Been wanting to add one of these. I like the Daytona on rubber for some reason...either the Oysterflex or the Rubberb.

Love that. How did you get the Oysterflex? I saw a past post where a guy makes the SS filler piece. Where did you get those?
thanks,

Smarty Endlinks makes the SS pieces, George is a TRF member. My dealer said no to Oysterflex halves, you just have to look around for them. They’re expensive, MSRP is $270 a side.
