No love for the 116515?

I've seen a lot of threads on daytonas out here but not any on the 116515..so why is that? Is it not very popular? Or is a dAytona on strap generally not popular?.... I personally love the watch and might be my next one

Idk. I prefer all gold bracelets so for me it's a no go.

I love the chocolate dial and rose gold combo. But Rolex is just not meant to be on straps for me.

I love it as well, and when considering the Everrose YM felt like the 116515 with leather was sweeter than the YM with rubber.

Great watch IMO

Rolex on bracelets are more de rigeur. Having one has kept me away from the Daytona circus so I'm doubley happy with mine.

You're definitely straying off the beaten path when you talk Daytona on a strap, around here anyways. But, you do see quite a few of them on the forum and they have a strong (and well deserved) fan base.

Love that dial! Was on my shortlist until my 500 arrived and now I'm confused as I'm not sure I want more Daytonas

Enjoy!

Quite simply a stunning watch. Would be the only Daytona I would own if I was in the market.

Don't see much of this lovely dial.

Also the black version.
