New daytona!

Singslinger · 7 July 2016, 01:41 PM

The new one because the shiny, steel bezel on the previous version is a scratch magnet. I sold mine because it really bugged me!

subtona · 7 July 2016, 01:48 PM

It would be nice not to scratch that bezel.

Definitely 116520 for me too and I have both.

Hairdude1 · 7 July 2016, 02:07 PM

New!

daytonaTBR · 7 July 2016, 02:07 PM

New!

incontrol · 7 July 2016, 02:10 PM

Love the look of the new one. Go for it!

sensui · 7 July 2016, 02:24 PM

It's interesting I think most owners of 116520 and 116500 think they differ significantly. I personally think so as well owning both 116520s and in line for the white 116500. I don't see the new ones being superior. Just different.

sadh40 · 7 July 2016, 02:25 PM

Ok thanks all

Am going ahead with Cerachrom though there is waiting period :)

New one looks better.

Evolver75 · 7 July 2016, 02:35 PM

I have the ss white dial version that I am quite happy with. I was able to buy it NIB for a really great price. If I had a choice and the cost to buy was the same for both versions than I would probably go ceramic. I would definitely not pay the current premiums to lay my hands on the new daytona. At a premium I would go all day everyday with the ss version. Wearing and enjoying it for the next few years until the hype cools down. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the ss version.

wildaxlrose · 7 July 2016, 02:36 PM

I'd go for the cerachrom

Absolutely. That watch was sorely in need of a revamp.

They are both nice, but the contrast of the new dials is much better than the ones on the 116520's.

Racerdj · 7 July 2016, 08:44 PM

Definitely the new one.

brandrea · 7 July 2016, 08:46 PM

New all the way

beshannon · 7 July 2016, 08:55 PM

Same movement different look, get the one you like the best

1William · 7 July 2016, 09:20 PM

HL65 · 7 July 2016, 09:34 PM

New without a doubt the bezel is such a nice improvement - Go for it if you can get one!

Petoman · 7 July 2016, 09:34 PM

Go for it! NEWWWW

TickTopia · 7 July 2016, 10:01 PM

My vote goes to the 116500. However, you can't go wrong with either.

hun23 · 7 July 2016, 10:05 PM

I personally love my SS white, but the new version is very tempting...
