Incoming 116500LN

18 months and got the call. Please meet my new Daytona acquired at AD at MSRP. I had been able to try on the black and white previously while traveling in Japan and just really like the continuity of the black dial with the bezel. I hope those waiting get the call soon too.

Congrats! Agree the black dial is the way to go. Just put my name on the list a month or so ago, but I'm okay with a little wait.

Congratulations, looks amazing. Incidentally I saw every grey dealer in Japan had a black and white Daytona which is where I also got to try them on. 100% agree with the black, was my favourite too!
