personally, i think this could look good in the flesh.
 and, when the SS model with black ceramic comes out in a year or two, having the brown ceramic will help differentiate the platinum.

I at first thought I liked it but the more I look at it I am changing my mind. If they went with black or even a white insert and kept the same dial this would have been stunning.

Thanks for sharing the live shots Puffy

I liked it when I saw it online because I thought the brown color was a lot darker. I do not like the color scheme now that I see it with a live photo. I think a black ceramic bezel with that blue dial and silver subdials (like the SS) would have looked much better.
What I don’t get is who signs off on this stuff? |

Chocolate dial, full gold Daytona on leather looks so much nicer than this if you want brown...
Love that variant. |

Should have a platinum bezel if its going to cost £35-40K or more, like on the DD. Ice blue and platinum is the ultimate combo here.

It's an interesting combination. If I had a car the color of the dail and the interior was wood lined it would look lovely. With the right outfit this would be very nice. I can see more women picking this up as it would look stunning on any lady....being a Rolex and all. Not bad, it'll sell, just not for me.

Even Rolex have realized that the Daytona is first and foremost ladies jewelry at this point.
