I totally agree; the numbers didn't draw me initially but they give the watch a very dressy appearance!!!

The blue dial with red hands is spectacular on this one, some would say too busy but it really stands out.

I think the arabic numerals are best looking on the Panda dial where they are less prominent. In fact imao the Panda racing dial is the coolest Daytona dial ever.

Posted on another thread but seems to fit this one as well :) feeling like the champagne dial gives it a gold watch look with steel accents. Sorry for my small lady wrists.

Some great looking watches here!
they are £14k now in the UK!
do you think a small discount on these new from AD would be possible?
just that most people get a discount on PM pieces!

was the Champagne dial different a few years ago?

I doubt it but when I bought my SkyD I saw one discounted (two years back); asking doesn't cost.

Yes - it used to have an 18k gold dial. There is a very nice YT video about it (Timeless Watch Channel)

Where can we find this video?

Taken from the internet.
I fine example.

I find the Arabics too much in an already busy dial.

This way you have the panda without the Arabics, plus the dial is matte.

And i do agree that arabics look better in panda than racing blue, because they dont stand out so much.

In Blue dial there are just to many colours. Gold, Steel,Blue,Red,White lume (inside arabic).

Personally, i am thinking about swapping my Racing blue dial for a white one, for a cleaner look and feel.

I love this matte black/Champaign dial (affectionately referred to by some as the Paul Newman dial), but unfortunately, it was never offered on the TT references. Someone swapped it after with a PM dial and hands. I see these floating around a lot on Chrono24.

Here is a handy reference someone else posted on another TRF thread for the group on dial combinations: https://www.rolexforums.com/attachme...0&d=1346543634

That said, I own the ivory panda and I tend to agree, the Arabic numerals look a little better on that than the blue. But in terms of 116523 dials, the Blue Arabic / White Arabic are my favorites and they're no longer offered.

Seriously contemplating joining the club, the only reason I am uncertain is because I already own three TT pieces and wondering if a fourth would be one too many.

It’s original like this. Purchased in 2016 when they for a few months used this dial in 116503..

Exactly like me.

It’s very rare in a 116503 (only offered for a year), whereas more seen on 116523.

Of course you can have it as a service dial.

Thing is that, as delicate as it might look in close up photos, i find it busy and i feel i am bored of it.

The white dial as common as it might be looks more clean and elegant to me.
