Hard to beat a blue Day Date. Goes with anything. Only those in the know will understand it is gold. I find my sport watches look best when I dress up a bit and my dressy DateJust's look best with jeans and t shirts. Odd but that is what I usually do.

Beautiful, congrats!! I hope you love it.

How's the sizing -- do you need to add/remove links?

Well it was preowned but from June. Counted a total of 25 links. I removed 1 to make it snug.

Good for you! I hope you love the weight and the look. It's a standout.

Thank you. I definitely love the weight. I traded and sold a lot of my SS and moved into PM because weight was a factor. Also, less people have PM vs SS. Its one of the watches that I consider it a “only if you know” watch. Sold my yg blue sub to get this. Its more discreet which I like. Personally I do not want the attention like the YG got. I like to wear it around without anyone knowing what I got :-).

Which is the SS panda version? I don’t think they make a panda in SS anymore??

I hear you. Its a preference thing, but rolex themselves refer to that dial as panda (just type panda on the search bar). You can call it whatever you want.... its really 116500ln.
