Would you add a YG Daytona on OF or a YG Daytona on bracelet?

Been on the hunt for a YG Daytona with the champagne "panda" dial on bracelet but it has not been easy to find.

None, the bezel is too prone to scratches/tach fading

If you like the YG green dial oyster bracelet il get that. Amazing to have both WG/blue and YG/green the best 2016 novelty

True. That's the nature of the polished bezel on Daytonas.

Perhaps the YG Daytona on OF would be a better addition since it is fitted with a ceramic bezel.

Da wife has the YG Daytona green dial so I can't really wear the same watch as her! Great suggestion though.

I just ordered the 116508 YG Green Dial! I had the all black dial and LOVED it however I decided to go with the "hot watch" and go green! Good Luck!

Oysterflex Daytona is more masculine in proportions and look IMO. My wife also has the YG Daytona. The OF was my purchase.

I love this one as well. Should be easier to get than the green dial.

Great looking shot! I love that Newman dial too but I already have 2 black dials - that's why I am on the hunt for a champagne dial.

Rose gold Arabic dial because you don’t have an Arabic dial

I currently own a RG DD40 green Romans which I do love. I also own 2 RG PPs and an RG AP, thus a YG would be a better addition to my collection.

Thank you for the excellent suggestion though.

YG Ceramic on OF with the panda dial-red accents gets my vote
