NWA - Daytona Platinum 126506
Hi watch enthusiasts, the weight feels great.
The new reference with subdials looks not bad imho.

Previous reference with ice blue surrounds much better IMHO.

When you say not bad because they’re thinner or brown on the baguette dial

The previous generation with baguette diamond dial did not have the brown rings around the subdials. In my opinion this gave the 116506 a much cleaner (and unique) look. But I am biased as I am lucky enough to own the 11 reference. The 12 variant is certainly more than incredible as well.

Yes I knew the previous diamond dial had that beautiful uniform light blue dial. I was just asking the OP what he meant. I’m sure he was talking about it having brown at all on the dial. In other 12 series Daytona threads they dislike the thin sub dial rings. Likely not what OP was talking about

Looks fine with the chestnut rings on the counter subdials.

Congrats on the acquisition.
