Panda 116500LN to RO 15450ST

Anyone who’s traded up from a 116500LN white dial to a Royal oak 15450ST Blue dial, did it feel like an upgrade in quality. Also how did the RO 37mm wear in comparison to the Daytona?

You take the most special Panda made since the late 70's and replace it with a standard Royal Oak.
And you also need to remember it’s the shortest production run of any steel Daytona in the last 30 years, and the first to feature a black Cerachrom bezel. So why the hell?

I would trade anyday your Daytona vs any Royal Oak. A huge step up in finitions and overal visual interest.
