That looks so fantastic

I have log considered putting on a WG dial and red hands on mine but the brushed finish plus the black bezel WOW

Lets be honest if Rolex updated the SS models with even some of those options and a ceramic version of your bezel it would really refresh the lineup of a classic watch.

Thanks for posting this up, I can't stop looking at the photo, it just looks....right

Thanks for the info. That really does look fantastic. I'd love a Panda / Newman dial on my s/s Daytonas. That bezel is the finishing touch.

So far I've resisted the urge to buy a dial from a gold Daytona so as not to create a Frankenwatch but this might have me changing my mind...

Stunning watch. This should be a factory option (and at 42mm too!)

Really wish Big Green would have made that. It looks great hacknsack44!

Although it is stunning, since it is a frankenwatch, I could never wear it as in my perception it is not authentic, but as long as you are happy, that is all that matters.
