Offered on from my ad, not sure I love, feels a little feminine to me, black dial a bit less so, however let’s see wrist shots and thiughts.

KeithP · 20 October 2019, 02:07 AM

I love it - very, very striking in the metal.
I would grab it .

Chewbacca · 20 October 2019, 02:09 AM

I think it’s fine.

As compared to what else?

Likestheshiny · 20 October 2019, 03:34 AM

I'm not a huge fan of two-tone in general, but I nonetheless find two-tone black dial very striking. I've come very close to buying the two-tone black sub.

alwayslovedwatches · 20 October 2019, 04:00 AM

As opposed to the steel/ceramic, this would be just an addition, I’d like both those, however don’t want to pay over retail.

Also like the solid gold/black dial.

I think the two tone may be a nice 3 way if I ever get call from ad for steel

A picture would help to visualize what specific model you mean; something like this would look nice

Not my cup of tea.

garbanzo · 20 October 2019, 04:43 AM

Feminine ? That’s in _your_ head

judson · 20 October 2019, 05:14 AM

^^^^
wow!

Goonthree · 20 October 2019, 05:25 AM

I like 2 tone Daytona and just surprised the price isn't higher!

TT sport models aren’t very popular and don’t retain their value. However I think the black dial on this reference looks pretty good.

But if the OP doesn’t absolutely love it then it’s a big pass. It’s not a rare or hard to find piece.

Based on your post I can tell already that you are not in love with this watch. Additionally, this model is not rare nor does it retain value so why settle on a watch you don't really seem to want OP.

Nikrnic · 20 October 2019, 05:42 AM

I'm not a Daytona or TT fan but that dial does pull it together well.

All look great. My favourite is the black Zenith with gold sub dial rings, followed by the modern Newman Panda style.

Which are you referring to the modern Newman panda style? I have to assume the PM models with panda dials??????

It's a beautiful watch with great contrast on its dial. That said, jus get a watch that sings to u.

Qinhan · 20 October 2019, 10:30 AM

Tried this on a few years back. I was actually really impressed at the time and vastly prefer the black dial over the white in this model.

I think it's very good value. First, It's a daytona. Second, You don't pay over retail.

Onikage · 20 October 2019, 02:54 PM

It's a Daytona. Yes it's not the hot hot hot SS but it has a flash of gold and is more wearable than full YG. Any Daytona is pretty damn nice.

Bladeshot · 20 October 2019, 02:56 PM

You are unsure. Don’t buy unless you love it. It’s a great reference. Popular and definitely not feminine. If I were you, I’d pass.

5nit · 20 October 2019, 03:01 PM

It is feminine. I felt this way when I tried one on. Too delicate.
