Those prices are MSRP.

Assuming this is a legit post, I suggest you ask for a significant percentage off. More for the full gold obviously.

Well... If you are ready to pay full price for PM, then have them order the reference you like. No reason to limited yourself to those two.

The SS models are rare, whereas PM are obtainable.

It’s hard to find Daytona in stock in south Florida so 3 ad said no discount.

Green dial is the exception and very tough to get. They should be able to get you any other gold model you want. Of the two you posted, I prefer the full gold by a mile, although I really like the black MOP dial but hate the two tone.

If you can afford it then I would suggest going for the full gold model. If you rather have a piece that is interesting to say the least and more affordable then go for the TT model.

Rose gold on the bracelet is my favorite, yellow gold doesn't really do it for me on the Daytona.

JR Dunn had a white gold blue face Daytona in the case on Sunday. It was beautiful.

Get the all gold. That two tone isn't the best.
Also once you buy make sure and ask for a SS model as well.

I find the diamond markers hideous unless you are a rapper. So I would ask for a discount and go full gold if you can afford it. All opinions are just that, and not intended to offend anyone.

I have found the T/T Daytona very versatile

If you’re going to spend that much money I would look around and get one you really want. There are so many nice ones out there.

I was at kempfs jewelry, Rolex dealer in Florida and saw this 2 weeks ago. The root beer was gone, then two tone Daytona was gone. I would guess the gold still there. You can try to give them a call if you want gold since it is a 2 hr drive.

Why not check with a Trusted TRF seller and get what you want. I'd go all gold. Hate the TT

If you’re willing to pay the MSRP on YG, why not ask for a SS combo deal?

Happened last night , I walked around the mall and saw a tt Daytona . I told sale lady I want to see gold Daytona, then she said “ why do you want to pay $34650 for gold ? Buy this tt Daytona and spend $16000 on penny stocks . You may have free watch in next 5 years “. Ok fair enough, this tt Daytona went home with me :)
