Trade Rose Gold 116515 Daytona
Hello all-
I'm thinking about trading off some of my collection for a rose gold Daytona with chocolate dial, and black ceramic bezel. I have a as black dial 116520, which I can live without, and also for trade is my Pam 388, and JLC reverso 976. My question is mostly for any owners of the 116515: how do you like it? How does the gold stand up to daily wear? I plan on wearing mine everywhere- everyday and I'm curious as to how well Rolex gold holds up. How flashy is it? I think the rose is much nicer than the yg, not so blingy, but is it super gaudy/ ridiculous??? I think it's a beautiful watch, and I'm very excited to get mine! One final question: in the future, can a Rose Gold bracelet be put on it? Thanks for the help- Jack |

don't own one but its a beautiful watch. I think it would hold up well to everyday wear, you'll need to get a new strap down the road I'd imagine as that would wear the fastest. Otherwise enjoy!

Unfortunately, the bracelet is not interchangeable. Many here would already own one if that was the case. |

I've had rose gold DD and it does not scream gold.
It held up very well with daily wear. As for adding a bracelet later on, that could be an expensive alternative. Of course mine had the president bracelet and it didn't show as many swirls/scratches as an Oyster will...especially with PCL's.

RG is great and for me a good daily wearer, but bracelet why well first I don't like straps, second would be too light, third don't think a strap would be good for me as I wear this in a race car at 140 degrees sweating like a pig so that was my two cents YMMV |

Just make completely sure you will like having a strap.

Also not a strap guy but wouldn't give it a second thought as a daily. Would prefer the bracelet though

I have one for 1,5 year now and still like it. It' is okay for daily wearing imho. I wear it with a black or brown rubberb strap.

Well if I was getting rid of/trading I'd start with the Pam.
