What is your favorite OF Daytona dial?

Disregard the meteorite since it’s discontinued. What is your current favorite OF Daytona dial?

The 11 version of this was amazing, but the 12 you show lacks distinction with missing black hour markers and don’t like metal surround on cerachrome bezel.

Agreed! Rolex ruined the 12 version of this with missing red chrono seconds and black subdial hands.

Me too, the 116518LN-0047 is the sportiest to me and the -0048 is the dressiest. Maybe because they are inverse of one another haha

well, as far as what is currently in the catalog, i'd go with the 126515LN, sundust dial with black subdials on oysterflex. Before, it was the 116515LN with the ALL sundust dial (dial and subdials both sundust), with baguette diamond hour markers, on oysterflex. I would love to have the latter, moreso than the former, but the only way to get it now is to go gray, and the going price on that bad boy is around $55k, whereas the current model is only $32,100 at retail. yeaaaaaaaaah that's quite a gap...

RG w/Chocolate. Can't be beat in my mind, but that RG with sundust is a close second

I have been going back and forth on the YG with Gold Dial and the Black Dial … and every time I see one with a White Dial I think that should be in the mix.

I have been on the wait list for 2.5 years, and have decided my decision will be easy … just whichever comes in first / whichever I am offered.

I’m hoping it’s soon, because I prefer the 11 Series offerings over the new 12 Series.
