The black/champagne dials are only for the 116518/116528.

Usually next best things arenīt really satisfying. IMO the dial belongs into a YG watch, maybe itīs better to be patient and save up for that.
Regarding the price Iīd say that TT watches and especially the TT Daytona donīt hold their value very well. I believe that selling a TT Daytona can be quite difficult, especially with a dial that normally does not belong to that watch. |

If it doesn't have the crosshair squares in the subdials it is not a PN. It is just a Daytona with gold/champagne subdials.

No modern Daytona really has a Paul Newman dial.
Just Internet hype. |

I "may" be wrong but I think that dial option is available for the TT Daytona

Thanks for the replies I did call a trader local to me and he did say that it was an available option, the jury's still out on the watch, it's either this and keep hold of my gmt blnr or sell my gmt and go for a yg 116528

I'd sell the BLNR. With the TT it seems like you'd just be settling.

It was not an available option for the 116523, at least the dial catalogues of the last five years all say "yellow gold only" for both champagne/black dials.
