Great to have discovered your channel! I love this particular Daytona too, as well as the Mother of Pearl in White Gold with 8 diamonds on Oysterflex, which I wear almost daily. Between the 2 Daytonas (when I finally get the Yellow Gold "Red Devil") & the MoP in WG, then I will have the subtle Daytona & the Very Loud Daytona! Thanks for the channel!
Hey just got this one have a 6 and 3/4 inch wrist have it on the D and F oyster but clasp not really in the middle. Was wandering what straps letter you have and wrist size and if the clasp is centered. Thanks
Hi, sorry for the late reply, usually we don check sites, but down to the grey dealers for the research on the latest market price! That will serve a better accuracy. You can also check out chrono 24 for a ball park.
Nice piece. My grail is a 1960s Speedmaster preMoon, the pre-1968 version used for the Moon missions. It reminds me of a defining, historical moment for the world during my childhood - the 1969 moon landing, but all those who were dear to me then, all the memories.
My SA just submitted my name for this one. Will find out over the weekend if I'm getting it allocated. Got to pick between this, the everose with gold subdials, white gold with black subdials, and the full yellow gold with black face. Picked this one and hoping I get it. About a 2 week wait which was surprising.
Great video to showcase this watch for those of us who can’t see it in person! Thoughts on this 116518ln compared to the 116515ln sundust or 116519ln steel dial?
Thanks for your kind words! My personal thoughts on the 3 models are equally handsome! They are all beauty in different races! Rose gold has its subtle class, leaning towards more business setting while the yellow gold which is my favourite leans more towards being sporty and the contrast with the ceramic bezel makes it much more of a head turner compare to the rose gold which is more Low key. Last but not least for the steel dial my personal take is that it is the balance of both yellow and rose gold model. It is not loud but if u know your watch, u know it’s definitely a white gold. Its more of portraying I’m wearing a ‘steel watch’ than attracting the attention of Gold staring in your face. Being the same watch with different precious metal has its edge towards different occasion and dressing sense. To conclude, get all 3 ( if budget allows) as they are brilliant in their own ways. Rather than collecting different model my take collect the same model in different materials
@@sgwatchtalk9906 Thanks for your insight! If budget does not allow. What are your thoughts if it’s the first Daytona, daily driver and collection purposes?
I honestly feel it really depends on urself. From Casio to Rolex and even Patek, it really depend on what u are looking for in a watch for ur daily beater. My channel seems to be featuring mostly Rolex, but it is not my collection, I’m just thankful that a friend of mine allows me to feature his collections. Honestly for collection purpose, just look at those iconic models of the Brands that speaks to you, example; Rolex will be the submariner series and Daytona Series, true that all other series are popular but there’s always a few that sets itself higher. Anyway next year it’s Rolex Daytona’s 50 year anniversary, I myself am excited to see what Rolex is coming out with. My personal take on a daily beater that can’t go wrong will be a IWC.
The waiting list for Daytonas goes back to 1988 but in the early 80s and late 70s this model was kind of sitting on the shelves bc people didn't have much interest in automatic chronographs during the quartz crisis. They were easier to buy than datejusts. I'm getting old. If only I knew!
Didn’t know I can’t resize the strap myself, still need to spend $$ to get another strap…Hmm… Nonetheless, still a very beautiful watch! So classy! Intense black with gold…
This has a perfect ratio of red, black and gold. This seems very suitable for a monotone coordinate. a gold and red would be a sophisticated accent for owners.
Yes, I would pay (If i could), it's way way way way cheaper than buy watches you dont want with an authorized dealer (not talking about waiting for years).

Thank you for the kind words! U hve a very good alternative watch! That’s the best I feel! Same watch in different variation with different image!

Very strong colors combination, the black, gold and red is just so powerful looking
I so agreed, it’s a very manly combination with confidence injected in it

@@sgwatchtalk9906 Thanks for the reply Jack. The price of this Daytona Newman has risen considerably since your video.
Awww, I guess and I hope I contributed to the rise! Hahah! How I wish I am the owner

CONGRATZ! It’s a fantastic watch and you will love it to the moon!

If you go for 1 mile long road, it would be 300 mph. If you choose 1 Km long road, then it is 300 Kph

If only I knew too! I would get my dad to buy those and not game boy and those gadget!
@@sgwatchtalk9906 LOL the strange kid collecting adult watches, that would be funny, and smart.
HAHAHAHA, all kids should see this, it’s like looking into the future!
So true. Its important to teach kids such things! I wish my dad did
I guess it’s part of parenting 101 in this new era!
Isnt it called the red diablo dial ?
Didn’t know I can’t resize the strap myself, still need to spend $$ to get another strap…Hmm… Nonetheless, still a very beautiful watch! So classy! Intense black with gold…
Yes, that’s the sad part and the strap isn’t as comfortable with the 2 fins inside. It wears higher as well.
But nonetheless it’s sexy!
This has a perfect ratio of red, black and gold.
This seems very suitable for a monotone coordinate. a gold and red would be a sophisticated accent for owners.
Good taste u got there! Yes I’m totally with you on this. Dressy yet classy with the sporty feel for all occasions
Probably should introduce the adjustable oysterflex clasp (like YM WG 42mm and Skydweller Oysterflex) into Daytona. Oh well.
Thanks for the feedback! Yes there’s a small adjustable I believe it’s 5-10mm extension that I did not talk about.
@@sgwatchtalk9906 The one on YM WG and Skydweller oysterflex have further extension like submariner clasp. 👍
Why is this called a Newnan dial? It looks nothing like the dial on the Paul Newman daytonas?
Hi, it’s due to the tri-tone dial.
Check this link out : ruclips.net/video/2O2xEKAhaW8/видео.html
Hope it helps!
It is very nice....I'd rather have it on an all gold band...not that black one.
THATS DEFINITELY A BALLER SETUP BROTHER.
Yes, I would pay (If i could), it's way way way way cheaper than buy watches you dont want with an authorized dealer (not talking about waiting for years).
You don’t have to buy the straps if you buy the watch new. They’ll give you the correct straps.
Miles per hour dude not kilometers per hour
price already down
