Think this would be an AWESOME piece, IF they had just made a platinum dayonta, with the blue face, no ceramic bezel, and no brown dials. That would be a stunning watch in my opinion.

daytona...especially the ss models - a perfect watch for the sophisticated modern lady of today

Lovely, but its 50K...

Trouble15 · 26 April 2013, 04:10 AM

I'm not sure if I like it or not yet.

A.Sharp · 26 April 2013, 04:31 AM

Darnit, at second glance... I love it. Ahhh how'd it grow on me in only a few hours?!?!

Andreas Schuback · 26 April 2013, 04:44 AM

no not for me thank you.

amvd · 26 April 2013, 07:46 AM

For me it's one of the most beautiful daytona, it's like the ice blue color of the porsche's of Le Mans in the 60's

If you ran it through a rally race track and got mud all over the tires, then parked it in the garage without washing the mud off

Permanently

mbkmbk · 26 April 2013, 07:47 AM

Definitely not the right colours.

FeelingTheBlues · 26 April 2013, 08:06 AM

At last, I get to see better pictures of the actual watch!

It does look pretty nice to me, a rather original yet beautiful combo!

HL65 · 26 April 2013, 08:31 AM

I actually like the colors and they work for me. My wife loves it too but at $80k for a modern Rolex...Yikes!!

nauticajoe · 26 April 2013, 08:54 AM

I'll pass.

submariner66 · 26 April 2013, 09:18 AM

Blue and brown is one of my favorite color combos -its my company colors, I love the new watch reminds me of Spring, but would not wear it as its too feminine for my tastes, but is a beautiful watch.

Well yes, at that price I'd much prefer to go with a Paul Newman but hey, if one twists my arm to buy it I will not be disappointed...

Dr.Brian · 26 April 2013, 10:16 AM

The 80k would be with the VAT, so I'd expect ~$60k.
It's a tough sell at that price.

shnxx · 26 April 2013, 10:18 AM

A rose gold ROO is a similar watch in that it's a loud recognizable showoff watch but it would have a better finished movement from a more highly regarded manufacturer and at a cheaper price.

I just don't get the pricing.

wohlfecc · 26 April 2013, 10:26 AM

Adding color to this rig is a tough call- what is trendy today is meh tomorrow... But maybe they expect the target customer to buy a new piece every two years or so? If that's the case, then by all means.

And as I think about it, if you have that kind of cash to blow on a watch, you probably can afford another in a few years that is pink and green or whatever combo they think is hot that year. Just my 2 cents.

BZA · 26 April 2013, 10:27 AM

Looking at this colour combo makes me feel ill...

tom2517 · 26 April 2013, 10:34 AM

I am hoping for a platty submariner now....

tasopappas1 · 26 April 2013, 10:50 AM

A little reminiscent of the Montauk Highway

gmh1013 · 26 April 2013, 10:54 AM

not for me

benlee · 26 April 2013, 11:05 AM

Enjoy the comments on this thread more than the pic of the watch.

PS : It's damn ugly.

Mystro · 26 April 2013, 11:28 AM

Letsgodiving · 26 April 2013, 12:26 PM

Thanks for posting but that is such a terrible colour combo words escape me. Usually I would hold off until seeing it in person but in this case I'm confident my opinion would be the same.

montres1 · 14 May 2013, 10:07 AM

blue lion · 14 May 2013, 01:18 PM

I don't like that combo at all.
