No way, these are (surprised) owl dials which is what slightly puts me off. I really would love a panda or reverse panda on the black dial, and I accept the PN Crosshair-style subdials are out of the question, altho I would pay a few grand more for them.

Zenith revisited
I have always found the Rolex 16520 (Zenith) white face dial the most attractive and I am so pleased this has been re-enacted. The only sad part is now the wait or the undoubted hefty premium.

Not a panda. It's a bull terrier dial at max.

It is a zenith dial with a ceramic black bezel. Nothing more.

OK, I'll give you the reverse black dial with white subdials, but it's gotta be white or black face & solid black or white subdials. I'm not budging on this.

They can't just go FULL panda. If they went full panda.. People would sell their houses to buy a couple.. then sell them when it was time to put the kids in college.

2020 is going to be a hell of a year.

No. The new ceramic SS Daytona is just a copy of the design on the SS white dial Zenith Daytona.

The new Daytona 116500LN white dial should be called the new Daytona 116500LN white dial.

It's not a Panda dial. Call it the Daytona "500" if it needs a nickname.
