Fantastic looking watch - lately I even prefer it to the WG model. But when I recently tried it on I really wished it was a mm or so bigger (maybe b/c I've become used to seeing the 116520 as my wife's daily).

The clear match for me was the 116518LN PN, loved it but a little conscience in my head (and a long list of Christmas and birthday gifts to make) and the fact that I was already picking up 2 watches that same day, stopped me from pulling the trigger at that time and the watch got sold the moment I said no thank you.

Fast forward to the beginning of the summer my AD said that they have received a new delivery with this reference if I wanted it it was mine, again bad timing as I picked up my AP ROO literally 1 week before, I hesitated a long time and had to say no thank you again! My AD and I have a very strong and open trust relationship, if we commit we commit so no problem at all again the watch got sold right away.

Fast forward to now, I said to my AD : look I love the watch I don’t have any PM Daytonas nor Oysterflex watches, missed already the opportunity twice, I am committed to it now. So they worked some magic and got me one 1 week after I committed to it.

Absolutely no regrets now, I can tell you this!!!

That’s fantastic. I’ve had a few AD’s tell me they they can’t even order this reference anymore. Your photos look amazing, this one is next on my list.

I have the full YG; have to admit I really like the black ceramic bezel.

Man, I've always liked this one but you may have made me love it. I can't justify two Daytonas that are this similar so I'd have to sell my 116500LN to get into this one and I am just not sure I could do that.

Great pics, great story, and congratulations. Keep the pics coming on this beauty!

Aside from a platona, I think this is the best Daytona being made. Congrats.
