No they are barely that different. The only way the new one would be easier to read is if I wear my reading glasses and don’t with my 11.

I like the latest iteration better.

I have the latest iteration black 126500 as well as the old 116500ln panda. I love both. But I love the 126500ln just a little more because of the size, ring bezel, and overall feel of the watch. I always thought the 116500ln was a bit too small and Rolex fixed that issue for me.

You think the 126500 wears larger than the 116500? I’ve heard conflicting opinions from people. While I own several 116 Daytonas I still have yet to try a 126 on the wrist yet. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Both are beautiful, at 12k both are all worth it and a great watch. Having spent time with both, it's all nuance differences. In hand, both are great. Win/win.
At 25/30k... it's just ok. The 116519 or 126519 are BOTH way better... to me anyway. |

126500 will wear larger because it has symmetrical lugs. it's actually a very noticeable difference even though it's such a subtle change

New ref is so much better as an owner of both. I would choose the new one all day long
