Icon20 Is the ceramic Daytona really the pinnacle of SS professional sports models?

Hi Guys, obviously like most of you I am a pretty keen Rolex enthusiast, and as we all know the current state of play with trying to obtain any stainless Steele sports model from an AD is frustrating to say the least. But there is one model that seems to far outweigh the rest as far as closed waiting lists and ott resale prices and that model is the ceramic Daytona. So my question is, is this accolade justified? I mean, is this your grail ss pro sport model? If so why? And if not what model is? The sea-dweller 126600 will probably be a shorter run so rarer, the sky dweller is by far the most complicated Rolex so should this not take the crown? Just food for thought..

Does the pinnacle have to be a Rolex?

It is nowhere near the pinnacle. Not by a long shot.

Whatever....it's a question that only requires one thread, preferably in the correct forum.
