Pardon my ignorance, but what EXACT reference is this? It may be my new favorite Daytona, and I want to know what it is, so that I know how many 7-11's I gotta rob 'til I get enough $ for one...

Well, I robbed 3 but your mileage may vary. It is the 116515 with black dial and pink counters/subdials, new out this year.

Thank you kindly - wear it in fine health!

That is up to you. Daytona is a great one. For me, it is a Tudor Submariner.

Well, I have a DAYTONA & I love it...



..but to me, this is the ULTIMATE!



Unfortunately I don't own it . Someday....someday.

Again, excuse my stupidity in advance, but here's another Daytona question that I can't seem to find the answer to ANYWHERE; to wit: The sub-register at 3 o'clock records elapsed minutes, yes? So why are there FOUR indices every 5 minutes of elapsed time? To put it another way, each hash mark records 1.25 minutes of elapsed time, right? I.Don't.Get.It...

I believe room was made for the 10, 20, 30 minute markers in the subdial so at 1 minutes the hand will point to the 0 of the '30' marker, at 9 minutes it will point to the 1 of the '10' marker, at 10 minutes it will point to the 0 of the '10' marker... at 19 minutes the 2 of the '20' marker, at 20 minutes the 0 of the '20' marker and at 29 minutes the 3 of the '30' marker.

I've never held one so can't say for sure, but that's my guess.

Daytona IS the way to go. In any iteration...stainless steel is iconic, but RG, YG, Platinum, SS/YG, you cannot go wrong with ANY imho. Platona is THE grail Daytona tho...
