Got the call. Daytona 126519LN

Just had confirmation. Picking up tomorrow. To say I’m excited is an understatement 👍🏻👍🏻 Steel dial. Absolutely gob smacked as I thought I’d be way into next year before I managed to get it.

amazing - congrats.

Saw it last week as an exhibition piece. (Display far in the back of the store - rep said they just got some of the new PMs Daytonas)

Can definitely spot the changes quickly - looks fantastic.

Sorry for the dumb question but what exactly are the changes between the 126519 and 116519? Is the case the same? I see the differences between the steel version but I have not read what changes were made to the PM models.

To the OP, congrats!

The two main changes that I’m aware of are the hour markers and the bezel.

Hour markers are thinner and less material around the lumed area.
Bezel has more of a WG ring which looks like the bezel is sitting in a channel

IMO, the smaller hour markers makes the watch dial look more clean.

Awesome, looking forward to the pics. For me, the pick of the new Daytona bunch (Le Mans excluded) is the 126519LN reverse panda.

Congrats, really interested in the pictures, not seen a "live" new model yet. Do you have much of a purchase history?

I’ve bought a few over the years. Honestly didn’t think I would have got this one as quick.

Will post some pics once I get home 👍🏻👍🏻

Congrats. One of the first ones.
Post pics when you have it.

I am on the list for one, could not get the previous model, so hopefully will get the new one.
