Lets be honest if Rolex updated the SS models with even some of those options and a ceramic version of your bezel it would really refresh the lineup of a classic watch.

Thanks for posting this up, I can't stop looking at the photo, it just looks....right
Thanks!

This is what I call "Personalization" not for everyone but made just to your liking. Bravo! By the way I am curious about the Bezel placement. Did you requested the Bezel to be installed off center with 60 at the 12hour mark?

Although it is stunning, since it is a frankenwatch, I could never wear it as in my perception it is not authentic, but as long as you are happy, that is all that matters.
Thanks! I understand it's not for everybody.

Thanks! I'm not sure if it's the picture that makes it look off center. I didn't realize it was off center in the picture. I will have to look at it in the morning.

You're watch is exactly what I was hoping Rolex would do for the Daytona this year. Bummer that it didn't happen. I woulda scooped that up in a heartbeat.

You've pretty much nailed the ideal version of the current Daytona, although I would like to see a black dial/red hands as well

Thanks! That would be awesome if they offered it with either the panda dial or the black racing dial.. Here is a older picture of mine without the black bezel..
