That is exactly what I was thinking. As far as I know, this watch is only available on the Chocolate Arabic and the Ivory Index. I am curious to find out more. The Chocolate version is high on my list of "pending purchases" and the rubber strap looks great!

The Rubber B is amazingly comfortable and is a perfect fit. I would highly recommend it to any one that has a 116515, as the black rubber compliments the black ceramic dial perfectly.

The Daytona was purchased in Greece and the rosé gold and black dial from the 116505 are a special order from EU ADs. Black dial looks amazing too!

Looks equally as stunning as when it's on the original leather strap.

Looks great!

In addition to a Daytona your pictures got me dreaming of a time in the distant future when I'm going to be able to wear flip-flops without having to amputate my toes after 15 minutes.!

Definitely. The chocolate dial is amazing too but doesn't show off the registers the way this one does.

That is the sharpest look I've seen with the Daytona.

That dial on that watch really pops I didn't even know it was an option. So it's available from all EU ADs?? Can you confirm
