Rolex Daytona appreciation post

Hi all,

This is my first post on the forum after following for several months. I would just like to thank everyone for great insights and beautiful pictures. I have been the lucky owner of a Rolex Daytona 116520 for approximately half a year, and I could not be happier with this great watch.

I would love to see your Daytona pictures.

Thanks and kind regards

Marius

Agreed, the Rolex Daytona 116520 was my first, the one I had wanted for 25 years, and the one I'm wearing now.....

My favourite is the 520 btw! Followed by the TT, then 500, then “Zenith”.
