Does the Daytona 116509 Meteorite (2021) exist?

So there’s lots of reviews, videos about the new Daytona meteorite dial releases last month. But they all only mention the yellow gold, rose gold and white gold oyster flex versions. What about the full bracelet 116509 Meteorite? I can’t even find a picture of it except on the Rolex website.

It’s definitely available, it only came out last month. But I have seen no reviews or anything else about it. All is about the white gold oyster flex 116519 with meteorite dial. Not a word about the panda meteorite on the 116509. I even found one about the 116508 meteorite but nada on the white gold

Thought full Pm was only rose and yellow? Could be wrong though.

Candidly, I found them underwhelming in person. And I really loved the photos.

No have a look at the rolex site, white gold also comes as full bracelet. Same old white gold bezel, not ceramic like the oysterflex versions

They released the meteorite dial for the rose,yellow and white oyster flex and also for all the full pm versions. So basically 6 configurations now in meteorite for the Daytona but no one talks about the white gold full pm bracelet, only the 116519 oyster flex version which I find terrible

I believe that too so why is no one here stepping forward? Not a single member here owns it? Shocking :)

It probably hasn't arrived just yet, but was told early fall. I think the Explorer I and II were the first new releases to get to market. I would expect the DJ interesting dials to be next.

My AD told me I can expect one this year, no chance of the blue dial version so I take what I can get. The meteorite looks great but doesn’t compare to the blue dial, and it costs 5k more. Would just be nice to actually see at least a video of it, the pic on the site looks great but some moving pictures and wrist shots would help. Will ask next week if they actually ever had one in so far or if they’re actually available from fall

I have asked about one of these from many ADs. Probably impossible to get unless you’re someone rich and famous. Just being able to afford these apparently doesn’t account for much these days!!

What a shame. I quite like the rose one but as like many others I want to see the videos etc.

I’m promised one by the end of the year, the blue dial is the one you can’t get at the moment. Being rich and famous would help there probably

Usually the steel releases his the dealers a month or two after their Basel launch.
The new Gold releases come later , probably around October November time
