There can only be one...
I like the new Daytona but there can only be one I love the most. The original. I had the chance to buy the new one didn't want it, it's seems to be a lot of copycats in the watch community! I'm keeping it classic. 😎😎😎

Beautiful ! This is still a modern Daytona though and not the "original" though ! Enjoy it in good health!

I think the ceramic SS daytona was a hit and everyone wants one because it's a beautiful timepiece. Don't think that makes them copycats. I for one don't own one but, I think the previous SS daytona like the one you're wearing is still just as nice :). Enjoy!

Sorry, IMO the ceramic version blows it away.
Still, nice watch, though.

I'm torn... I love my white 116520 but think a black 116500 would be a great addition!

Love them both - IF I had to choose only 1, it would be the 116520...got a 116500 black dial on order to compliment my SS Panda!

Well, better post than last time you posted that same picture. I'll give you that.
I think the new Daytona C is a beautiful watch. I've never really been a fan of the Daytona line, with the exception of some of the truly vintage references. That said, the new white 500 is the first Daytona I actually wouldn't mind having, and it has nothing to do with its popularity. To imply that those buying and wearing the 500 are copycats is frankly insulting and inaccurate. You seem to have a way of putting your foot in your mouth. |

I'd be happy to be a copycat, I buy what I like not what other people don't.

Technically, that one isn't the original...
But it is a classic...Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

i want to love the daytona i really do but to me it looks great when im holding it but not on my wrist, ive had 2 116520's and ive sold both..... the dial is too small for me and its too small on my wrist.
It just doesnt look as big as a sub (yes i know there are marginal differences in size) when i was wearing it so i have finally admitted defeat and given up on the daytona.... for now
