Congrats! Nice photos! Nice trio too! Nothing like getting three Daytona's in a row I see the white gold often - surprised you're getting it late

You're now part of the B/W club! Bluebull made up that name! Maybe we should make another icon to commemorate having a black and white ss daytona!

The "standard" dial options [black /silver] on the 1160509 WG Bracelet D are usually readily available, guess it would be dependant on location and AD though, but the "Premium" dial choices are by special request either by the AD as stock or the individual, i know mine had to be ordered through Geneve as the country [UK] distributer did not hold one

guess you've Googled the fascinating IMO info on the "Gibeon Meteorite" which they are hewn from? another titbit on the meteorite dial choice , No meteorite standalone Dials leave the Gates at Geneve!! along with a few other premium and vintage pieces on "The List"! are protected like the holy grail, and ANY WORK with regard the dial, the watch MUST be returned to Geneve
