Very nice, congrats!

Love the PN, too.

Congratulations! Great to see a bunch of these rolling out lately.

Congratulations

It’s looks smaller next to the PM … could just be the photo or maybe the end links.

Congrats!

I’m torn between picking up an 116500 now, or keep waiting for the 126500 from my AD.

Great combo (trio) by the way.

I the 6500 wears smaller and more vintage vibe which I love, BUT I am loving the modern even lugs on this. Also the case on this is same as PM case.

I took some side by side with my WG OF.

I had my AD source it. I have the WG on OF and I sourced one for it, and when I got the new PN noticed it would work on it as well. It elevates the watch to a new level.

Also I like to add this was a present for my 40th! My Ad and wife worked on this behind the scenes

Our AD relationship goes back 10 plus years and extremely grateful and thankful for it.

I think your Daytona “PN” looks great / dare I say better (IMO) on the leather strap.

I have an 116500 and an 116519, and I’ve mentioned in other posts that, with these closeup / HD photos, I can pick a favorite between an 116500 and a 126500, but that, honestly, on the wrist, from 3 feet away, it’s hard to see the differences … they all look great.

PS … How about a “1 shot” picture of your collection … it looks like you have some real gems in there.

PSS … I’d also like to see those photos of your WG 116519 Daytona next to your 126500.

Wow. Amazing watch.

Congratulations on your new watch. I am on the camp that prefers your precious metal one on the strap. Killer watch. Stupid question. I assume that watch doesn't come with a leather strap, so how did you source the leather strap? Thanks in advance.

Sourced from AD. Dallas RSC had some, and my AD ordered for me.

Ah. Ok. Thanks.

Thanks for the reply. I can’t believe how amazing the PN looks with the leather!

Thanks. Collection has changed a bit over time and I do keep some in the bank. I'll post soon all together.

Wow. That blue leather is banging.

[karleone]

Congrats on your new beautiful SS Daytona it looks great! And gotta say your PN looks so good on the alligator strap!

[sambb]

looks great .. i think the 39mm will be better on a lady's wrist and the 40mm 12 series better on most men. Thanks for sharing.
