My longest wait for a Rolex ever..
Post Basel 2016, I (or shall I say most of us) was completely blown away with the panda white dial ceramic 500LN. It is the quintessential Daytona we can ever ask for. However, as I wait and waited some more, I began to look at the black dial. The white has all the right elements conceptually and I still want one but ultimately, black is the sexier one to me. It is stealthy, sophisticated and when I walk into my office... all my watch buddies there just drool and I mean major league drool(just picture all these grown men near tears as I tease them with this sexy candy.. I am the worst). I think the play between the ceramic bezel and the vibrant and rich glossy black dial is just killer. Well, a few quick shot here to highlight the beautiful black dial and yes, I am a very happy man here

Yes, sir!
 I agree, I think while the white may "pop" more, the black is just pure sex. Congrats, Fred. What a beauty!
