I know what you are saying with the blue dial in this picture. However look at the case. It is symmetrical, steel daytona cases are asymmetrical, thinner on the crown/pusher side.

henryjbird · 2 November 2016, 01:53 PM

Puked in my mouth a little when I saw that pic

BLACKHORSE 6 · 2 November 2016, 02:00 PM

Sorry that happened. Keep us posted.

GB-man · 2 November 2016, 02:05 PM

Painful but no sweat. Easy fix

ilovewatchestoo · 2 November 2016, 02:36 PM

Ouch sorry dude thanks for sharing the pic though. I Hope for a speedy recovery for that Daytona.

Allanmodel · 2 November 2016, 02:46 PM

Ouch!

luvsub · 2 November 2016, 03:53 PM

Err

Top_Clock · 2 November 2016, 05:14 PM

Just look at the crown guards and markers... This watch is fake.

SC11 · 2 November 2016, 05:34 PM

It's either a fake or aftermarket parts on a SS Daytona

Bezel engraving wrong
Dial looks off
Platinum Daytona has the slightly beefier case and this is usually obvious around the pushers with a slight case overhand of the bezel and on this watch it's not present.

henry333 · 2 November 2016, 05:53 PM

So much China parts , not sure which part is made by Rolex. Lol
Those eBay ceramic bezel shouldn't cost that much to replace.

johnnyjazz · 2 November 2016, 06:06 PM

That aint no platinum Rolex, looks like a fugazzi, why would you?

regnant · 2 November 2016, 07:40 PM

Sad to see that but good thing the watch was unscathed

Michael N Q8 · 2 November 2016, 08:00 PM

The bezel is definitely not original. Just check the position of the "P" in PER compared to the "R" in HOUR, compared to a genuine one...In the genuine one the P is between the U and the R, in this one its at the mid point of the R.

rebel_1 · 2 November 2016, 09:25 PM

Looks like to also spun the bezel a quarter turn as well. Painful I'm sure! Keep us posted on your repair please.

Etschell · 2 November 2016, 10:03 PM

let us know if it is more than 1,200 for the ceramic bezel part. im guessing itll be an even 2k.

accidents happen. id hack the movement just to be safe.

I reckon will be more like $10.

The thin crown guards are clearly of the SS model, which the OP does have. Tellingly he also never said this was a Platona.

subtona · 2 November 2016, 11:00 PM

bummer.

sapper17 · 2 November 2016, 11:03 PM

Minute marker at 3 o'clock doesn't line up, dial is not from Rolex

wow. didnt catch that one but wasnt even looking.

Chaching · 3 November 2016, 12:29 AM

It looks fake...look closer

OmegaJJH · 3 November 2016, 12:46 AM

I'm so confused.

At first I felt sympathy and pain for OP now i'm starting to feel less so.

Fake? - OP what's the story?

Must admit - the blue doesn't look right although that could just be the lighting?

TheRolexKingofLV · 3 November 2016, 03:24 AM

Hmmm???

breitlings · 3 November 2016, 03:34 AM

thinking of someone else.

TheRolexKingofLV · 3 November 2016, 03:46 AM

OP has posted numerous threads with questions, and positive comments about "aftermarket" dials, and "aftermarket" ceramic bezels to make a fake Platona, or as the OP states, "To spice up a 116520". Those previous threads FYI have been LOCKED!

gregmoeck · 3 November 2016, 03:51 AM

Are you the very first ? Kinda makes me wonder if steel would be better

I have yet to see a 100% genuine example of a ceramic Daytona bezel breaking.

SC11 · 3 November 2016, 04:05 AM

I really don't understand this selective reading!

The parts are aftermarket so any reference to cost/longevity of genuine Rolex parts is pointless
