Looking for Rolex Daytona

Hello All, I'm new to the forum but have been a watch lover for years. edited by Staff The one I lust after is the Rolex Daytona 116509, but I can't afford the $30,000 pricetag. Does this same model come in a stainless steel version? Does anyone know what the model number would be?

Thanks in advance for your help!

No, the only Stainless Steel Daytonas are the black and white dial versions.. Some have been able to come up with the White Gold version dials and swap them out, but these dials are very hard to come by..

You can get a SS and change out the dial I suppose.
But It'd bother me everytime I looked at it. If you asked me 20 days earlier.
I would've sold you that black dial. I had a spare because I changed one of mine to a slate
Just sold everything together 20 days ago, including the meteorite I had

A new one goes for what 14k ? Might as well spend a little bit more and get a used 08 Model which should go around for 18k-22k

If you got the SS Daytona and found the WG Black Arabic dial, you'd still only be halfway home. The bezel on the Daytona you like is also different. So that would be even more expense.

There is a black dial SS Daytona that is a great watch - just no Arabic numbers on the dial.
