In person looks great. I have been kicking it around myself lately. Finally had a chance to see the Champagne dial and in person white still wins it for me. Would be a nice addition to the other 2 you have listed on your profile.

If you like it, yes.
I personally do and would buy it. But don’t do it just because it’s a Daytona.

Yep, I would definitely consider it. I like the Daytona in TT. I like the black dial too.

The 126???
Absolutely. I think it’s awesome. As far as two tone goes, it’s one of my favorites. There will always be a crowd of folk who dislike all two tones, but don’t let that sway you. Is the bezel a scratch magnet ? Yep. But it adds character if you ask me. |

I've seen that one at my AD. I think it works well visually.

The white dial is nice, but I find the black dial with batons (not diamonds), very, very, sexy cool. I know they give off a different vibe. This white would be a great summer watch!

Even during the years of the shortage these could be gotten relatively easy.
I’ve never been a big fan myself

Two tone white dial Daytona
I think it looks great on darker skin tones, not so much lighter shades.
I also think the newer 126 champagne dial with the black outer rings is the best of the TT bunch. Love that one. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

If you like TT, then yes. It’s not a substitute for an SS.

In my 20 years of Rolex collection I never had a TT, so this would be special. The SS Daytona (although I had two in the past) never did it for me. So in my mind TT would be a next level up. My grail is Rootbeer GMT period, the Daytonas are just the milestones towards that journey.

It’s tasty. Would be tempting if it was about 20% cheaper.

Why should it be 20% cheaper? In my eyes this is worth more than the SS

If I wanted one, absolutely. Why not?
It’s a good looking watch just better suited to older guy than me, in my opinion, so never considered one.

I am 47 so I guess in your opinion I am older. Remember everyone will be older one day. I like it to add it to my Starbucks and Pepsi. So not sure I am considered older with my collection. BTW this would be my third white dial Daytona. I sold two SS white dial 116500 in the last 10 years when they were not that hype.

Love my 11 series. Bought it grey with no sales tax. Same for my Deepsea. These were two watches I didn’t want to go through an AD to get, as I was able to do better than MSRP + sales tax.

Yes, it's a keeper. While I also like the champagne dial, I found it a bit more difficult to read, but that's just me. I have a caramel color Rolex strap that I slightly modified to use with the existing clasp. Very comfortable. Currently, I have it on the bracelet.
