The only change I am interested in for the Daytona is legibility. The hands disappear on the dial, this is not a useful timepiece for me.

I find the size and shape of the watch PERFECT.

Rolex seem to be behind the curve….the watches were too small when we all wanted massive watches and now we are trending towards small ones Rolex is giving us bigger ones

legibility and aesthetic is a trade off, you can't have both.

100٪ . There is nothing called 60th anniversary, Rolex is not Omega. It's 25,50,75,100, etc

So the current Daytona is a perfect size for our times

smallcollector · 5 January 2023, 05:40 PM

41 or 42 would be great

alphadweller · 5 January 2023, 05:41 PM

Offer the Daytona in 42mm on top of the current 40mm, so that everyone's happy, just like they're doing with the Yacht-Master.

I believe we gonna get a 41mm!

FREG · 5 January 2023, 09:06 PM

Yes! call it a 41mm like the submariner and make it a real 40mm

TripleCrown7 · 5 January 2023, 09:14 PM

I would love to see a 41mm!

Driver8 · 5 January 2023, 09:19 PM

Lots of "no's" on here... but I guarantee if it did come out as a 41mm, everyone would be going absolutely ga-ga for it in no time. It's how it always goes with new models.

Swiftneck · 5 January 2023, 09:33 PM

no

1259 · 6 January 2023, 01:27 AM

Not only should they keep the size as is, they should make the explorer 2 and sub back to its original size.

this LOL. Hafiz measured it to 38.4mm with bezel without crown. I am fine with the black dial steel model, since the dial and bezel blends together and makes it look a hair larger. But any other dial I have tried on, its borderline too small. I would be fine even if it was 39 with bezel.

You will get Yes n No

WilsdorfNDavis · 6 January 2023, 05:38 AM

Yes, I'd love if they offered a 42mm.

As much as I like them, they are currently too small (IMHO) for my 7.75" wrists.

dtwer · 6 January 2023, 08:54 AM

The current size is too small; very underwhelming. 42mm would be much better.

HogwldFLTR · 6 January 2023, 09:01 AM

No from my 6.5in wrist perspective.

904VT · 6 January 2023, 09:01 AM

No it is perfect as is. It's not supposed to be a large sports watch, but rather an elegant sports watch. If you want a bigger Daytona, but one in WG, RG, Platinum, or on Oyster Flex.

I find mine to be perfect for my 7.5 inch as well. Some people just seem to really prefer and/or are skewed towards overly large watches imo.

No. I like the Daytona the way it is. I have bigger watches I can wear if I want to.

If they reduced the bezel size(width)...that would be just as effective.

JRell · 7 January 2023, 01:57 PM

No! Smaller, smaller!

This is interesting. Can you explain more? I always thought that a larger bezel makes the watch look bigger. You seem to be implying the opposite...
