This is how chrono design should be. Stunning simplicity that I hope Rolex will re-adapt in the future. The current one they make is ton busy.

What a beauty 😍

It's not officially titled panda by any official Rolex authorities and is nicknamed by the community, of which language and nicknames change and evolve over time. Not to mention I had ADs call the 116500 white dial a panda. If certain folk have to keep telling so many people that it's not a panda over and over again, perhaps it is you who are wrong and need to keep up with the evolving language of current times.

The ADs that call it a Panda don’t care about you or any of us, they lie about lists, they tell you things about getting watches you are waiting for and then change their minds. They call watches by nicknames and don’t care if it’s accurate if it helps sell. They are wrong and so are watch guys who fall for their nonsense. NOT A PANDA! Quit falling for AD BS...

The majority of people call it a Panda. You are in the minority. Just cause you say it's not does not make it so.

Hahaha, back at you. I’m retired and can debate this endlessly. Was at the zoo recently, the Panda had a very distinctive look. That was a Panda. This is a watch that does not resemble the animal I saw. Go figure!!

You can be petty and have the last word. Just cause you can debate something that has no validity with science or logic and is all opinion based doesn't make you right

The majority call it a Panda, the dial is white with black marks. It looks as much Panda like as the previous white dial Daytona. Rolex.com has the keyword PANDA for it. You being stubborn and retired and stuck in your old fashioned ways doesn't change that. But you can have the last word since you're so adamant in arguing in circles for no reason, have at it.

There used to be a time when people new to the hobby would try to learn, but it seems that those days are gone. Instead, they become down right hostile if you don’t accept their incorrect position. Panda and Paul Newman have historical meaning when taking about collecting Daytonas but now it’s all about whats used on social media and investment value.

I'm with you op but you're trying to convince someone that the earth isn't round.

[train-time]

The 116500 white dial is definitely not a Panda!

[GMTme]

Oh my gosh. Again with this? Who cares?!

Who cares? Apparently everyone that is contributing to this thread. And guess who that includes . . .

[franklee168]

Isn't there a reseller price increase we can talk about instead?

So what will the not-panda climb to if replaced by a real panda?

Asking for a friend.

[Theothergreg]

In keeping with stupid nicknames, the not-Panda white dial Daytona should be called "Petey'' in honor on the dog in The Little Rascals

OFF-TOPIC WARNING!

The dog in this picture, who starred in the TV series is a Pit Bull (Amstaff to be precise). The picture and the whole TV series perfectly depicts the true character of these dogs - and the fact they’re amazing family pets, despite being vilified over last couple decades as being “dangerous”...

Sorry, couldn’t resist!

Gotta go - my Amstaff is asking me to take him for a walk... My Deepsea confirms it’s time.

[CKizzy]

Okay BOOMER ;)

[Seaswirl]

Yep and not all panda dials are Paul Newmans. I’ve given up though and it seems that folks newer to the hobby just don’t care about getting it right.

Please define who is the authority on "Nicknames" it may not be a " Traditional " Panda Dial but it IS referenced in popular culture as a Panda Thus a "Nickname" seems you foggies can't differentiate between an actual Panda Dial and Panda the Nickname. I do not think any of us Newbies or as refrenced "folks newer to the hobby" do not understand that it is not a TRUE PANDA DIAL. But I do think you Foggies or " older folk in the hobby" believe we do not know it is not a true Panda dial. We still reference this model as a Panda Nickname... hope this clears it up gramps.
