The “other” new Daytona release

Just come across this off catalogue release. Thoughts?

Think I’d actually really like it if it weren’t for the diamond lugs and crown guards.

I don't think it will sell, way too dramatic.

Anybody got a clue what retail might be on this?
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder but IMO a better looking piece to their last gem-set Eye of the Tiger.

116500 fans will not like it, the bezel has an outer rim.

If it has a gold rotor, I like it.

It's beautiful. I don't think it's that expensive. $80-110k msrp I bet.

Yes, I believe the letters in the reference are TRU, so diamonds and rubies.

I agree. , I hate when they do the lugs and crown guards. Just do the dial and bezel!

Gaudy … I would never wear anything like that.

I dare someone to wear that even walking down Rodeo Drive on Beverly Hills. You’d never be safe. Forget the cost of the watch, what is the cost of armed personal security around you 24/7?

I actually love thus far, the white gold pseudo Reverse Panda. I’ll reserve further judgement until someone makes an actual video or takes photos of one live.

Disappointing that you don’t get a tachymeter when spending that amount.

It's 0.6 rubies per minute scale.
