Cosmograph Daytona 116528

[Eric Chan]

The amount of time spent on this Forum has increased as I anxiously await the arrival of my 116618 LB. There was a thread that caught my eye from about a couple weeks ago where a member posted a thread about the RG Daytona vs. the YG Daytona. The RG Daytona has always been the one for me if I were ever to pick one up in precious metals. The Daytona in RG is absolutely stunning, particularly when paired with the pink dial with black sub dial combination.

However, this specific thread sparked an interest in the YG Daytona for me and upon doing some research, a new found appreciation is now had for this reference. If I were ever to pick up a precious metal Daytona, some serious consideration on my part would need to be put towards this model. The two following dial combinations work the best for this reference in my opinion :

1. Black dial with champagne sub dials, or
2. Champagne dial with black sub dials

Theses dials just bring the watch to life and provide great legibility (some Daytona dials do not) and really complete the watch. Also, the red second hand and outer indices are a fantastic finish.

So, in typical TRF fashion, I would like to hear what members, specifically the ones who own or have owned this reference have to say about these two dial, or any other dial combination for the 116528.
