Daytona 116523. Love the way the Daytona looks in two tone.

That's funny because I was so sure I wanted the TT Yachtmaster so when my SA told me they got one in I went to go look at it. If I wasn't wearing the CHNR I might have purchased the YM but when I saw them side by side it made me think the YM wouldn't get much wrist time so I passed. But I've always thought that the TT Chocolate dial YM is so attractive!

This, all day. That being said, I’m looking to add a two tone DJ 41 with the Wimbledon dial.

Thank you Sir!

It also happens to be one of the easier Daytona’s to read. The yellow gold hands offer really good contrast against the white and black dial.

The king of TT has got to be the Bluesy.

That is the nicest combo and possibly the nicest watch Rolex produces. Gold & Blue just pair so well even during ancient Egyptian times.

Is this the real thing, is this just fantasy? Caught in a land slide, no escape from reality.

Yes sir! I was so surprised and happy to see someone else with this iteration. That dial color just sold it for me when I configured the watch several years ago.

Even rarer is the 116503 with steel/slate dial.
