I have noticed the sudden influx of new Daytonas so here is my contribution - pics of my new black dial SS Daytona

Though I had to order it interstate but paid $RRP and the wait was around 1 month. Maybe I just got lucky

AND YES the protective stickers are still on. My excuse is that I was in too much of a hurry to take pics. Plastic warranty card and no hologram.

Great watch but myself stuck in the past to me there is only one Daytona thats a 6263/5.Now the 6263 dial with the black bezel and the modern movement, then I could be tempted to buy one.

Excellent pickup!

Mmmmmmm...Daytona.........

miner · 18 August 2007, 11:03 PM

Well in Sydney it was ... Don't bother. Though some around in the second hand dealers. So I had to search far and wide - Now if only I could see the time - damn those hands are hard to read ! Oh Well, its a ss Daytona - who cares about the time.

Congrats!!! Lovely watch you have there! Enjoy it!

jjs · 19 August 2007, 12:14 AM

PAM0048 though. My wrist too small to sport a real one

It certainly is easier to read the time

even in the dark

But its just not a Rolex

Many,many ADs,thats the advantage

.Nothing like a bit of competition to get the nice discounts ....

No discount on the Daytona,but a year wait on average.

At todays exchange rate your newly aquired GMT would have been ... US$5092.. and thats the worst case scenario

Chris,
I figured it out only 40 people inyour area want a Daytona so there is no wait. I should fly down to visit your beautiful country and buy my long awaited Daytona black dial please.

Make no mistake,all those different ADs thrive.Demand is high.There is a lot of people with mucho $$$$.The advantage here is that there are many ADs within a 70 mile radius.I know where to shop for what.I dont buy the Daytona at the same AD,that I shop for the "base" models.I could get a black Daytona at less 5% from our MSRP,two weeks ago.I am not kidding.

MSRP is higher,but discounts on most models is also high.You also get your tax back as a foreigner.Another advantage,for you.

If ever you want to come and are looking for a Rolex.Let me know in advance and I can make some calls ... No problem.

Excellent Daytona, enjoy it!
