It’s really stealthy and stunning IMO. Would be an awesome solo Sub to have imo!

My grail is Patek P but it is just impossible now, I can't afford to buy any PP I don't like just to get on the wish list...

I actually prefer the black dial Daytona, but would not turn down the white when offered. It is a tough call, and not sure I would feel the same if I had the black dial. Having said that the white does add diversity to the dials in my collection.

To sell or not to sell my 116520

Here is the current collection - not shown the new RG Chocolate Daytona, and my Cartier Santos Blue

In that case, here's a thought: Call an AD (either your friend or another) and tell them you'll trade straight up for the next new black dial stainless Daytona that comes in. Especially with the ceramic bezel, I agree that the black is the better looking of the two.

I'm recently also thinking to trade mine with AP (15400) but so far has not pulled the trigger. After reading this post I'm more inclined to just keep it.

Your 116520 is in an amazing condition. Unpolished and mint. These are getting harder and harder to come buy. I would definitely keep it.
