Is this the best white dial daytona photo ever?

Honestly i haven't seen a better photo in my life

I was browsing through my collection of rolex photos that i've downloaded from the internet over the years and i was completely drooling when i saw the following daytona photo

One of the most stunning white dial daytona photos i have ever seen

You think there's some padding under it to make sure the rocks don't scratch?

I was thinking the exact same thing when I saw that photo. I wouldn't put my Daytona on those rocks!

Nice shot, but not the very best.

I saw one a while back of the Daytona with the meteorite dial that was incredible! I'll see if I can find it.

That is a stunning picture

I am not sure I can say it is the "best" I am sure Jocke has some good shots!

I agree - it's good but maybe Jocke can do better?

What i don't like about this photo are the green reflections in the steel and the pebble background. Pebbles would be fine if the watch was elevated above them and they were blurred out. I prefer more of an isolated subject with a soft bokeh for background.

That is one gorgeous watch - thanks for posting the picture, and in response to your question: I think that it is one of the best shots of a white dial Daytona.
