Popular PM Daytona Incoming Tonight (P.M.)!

Hey everyone,
Incoming 116519LN PM Tonight (P.M.)
...double entendre intended

Definitely a TRF favorite...
I did a poll on the best PM Sports Watch Rolex has released since 2015
and this beauty won going away. See link below:
https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=677599

I have to say I really love the look, the sunburst silver/steel beautifully matches
the metal and the subdials beautifully match the OF straps.
Very clean and super sharp look!!
I have to wait a few days for E-G straps, for my girlie man wrists,
but I just got a batman 2.0 as well, so happy to wear that in the meantime.

Here are a couple pictures of my PM Daytona this P.M.
Name:  thumbnail-4.jpg
Views: 1289
Size:  63.7 KB
Name:  thumbnail-3.jpg
Views: 1282
Size:  71.1 KB

And here is an Updated Family Album...
3 Daytonas, 2 GMTs and a Diver.
YG, RG, WG and Steel.
Blue, Black, White, Steel and Green Dials
I think this is a very nice variety of looks even if it is not a huge variety of references.
So is 3 Daytonas' too many?

Please let us know what you think of the feel of the oyster flex strap once you get it.

Are you sure that three Daytona’s isn’t too many?

Just kidding, congratulations on a great addition to your collection.

Gorgeous timepiece. If you could only keep either the 116519LN or the 116500, which one would stay?

What i like about your bunch is the 3 Daytonas actually are all different. Puzzles me how some members have 2 or 3 exact same looking Subs in their collections. Or a Sub date and a No-Date Sub. Redundant to me...But we all different I guess.

I actually briefly had a YM on OF and owned for a while a RG Daytona on OF. So I already know it is comfortable!
This reference on WG with silver/steel dial is the nicest I have seen of all of them!

Thanks Mike... Well, right now I would choose 116519LN.
However keep in mind I owned both 116500 in black and white and wore both A LOT.
I probably have had the 116500 white longer than any watch, so that is saying something for me...lol..
But you are asking me right now, so that is my answer.

That is my thought too...
I once had a black Sub and a Smurf together in a small collection and they seemed too similar.
I think it was because both were white metals and both had a metal bracelet and both had cerachrom bezel, even though one was WG/blue and other SS/black.
Here with the Daytonas, the metals are different, bracelets different and bezels between YG and white metals are different.

Congratulations! You've certainly amassed one of the best collections in the shortest amount of time. Why did you sell the WG Blue daytona btw? You like the panda look more or was it too similar to SS since blue is quite dark dial?

Congratulations! I’m glad you’ve pulled the trigger, its a stunning Daytona in its own right.
I’ve got the RG model and the OF strap is very comfortable.

On another note, how does the AP diver wear on a small wrist?
