Incoming! Baby LeMans Daytona Oysterflex 126519ln





Love the dial! The whole watch feels regal and luxurious yet somehow still keeps an aura of understatedness. You can spot it a mile away yet not be sure if it's what you thought it was. The Oysterflex is supremely comfortable.

This is going to be a great reference as time goes on.

The title is a riff on the earlier thread about nicknames. Don't take it too seriously!

Love this reference. Good choice, much better than the steel dial reference!

Congrats

I had a chance to put both side by side and this reference was superior in my eyes to the steel ghost. The silver subdials and the perfect black dial really makes this a hit!

Thank you everybody. The watch is so incredibly balanced on the wrist. You feel the weight but it is perfectly balanced with the Oysterflex as all things should be.

Another glamour shot.

Beautiful dial - this was on my wishlist but AD offered me a ghost instead. I took it and it's really grown on me. Each of the dials are so unique. White gold is such a luxury sleeper too.

After seeing it next to the ghost, I prefer this much more because of the subdials and deep black.
