I passed on a ceramic Daytona white dial some months ago. Why? No love for it. I had one in steel (mid 2000's), and two tone as well. I got bored with them. This might change in the future. But, not a good idea in my opinion, to purchase for the hype or "scarcity" surrounding the profesional models. I don't flip. So that's not an option either.

You obviously don't have any feelings toward the watch, the right choice is to pass

Solid advice!

I do, I put it on my wrist and snapped one. Just can’t figure out how to upload them here from my iPhone 😬

A day later and I feel even better on passing. But I did find a mint DSSD 126660 black dial at a very fair price that I might pull the trigger on ��

Agreed on the accessibility of this model and it is really frustrating that ADs aren’t even willing to move on price for this reference.

Not meaning to hijack this thread, but if anyone has an AD willing to work with me on this reference, please drop me a PM, as I’m looking to buy now!

I see lots of those YMs and the rhodium dial as well. I dont think those are that hard to get, probably easier than a DJ41
