Congratulations on your latest acquisition it is more discrete than your YG Daytona You are the best enabler out there! If you ever do visit the UK, keep me in mind
Probably my favourite video of yours yet. Clear to the point and a great insight to your journey. Never say never with Rolex but i think you have the best version of every model, apart from maybe a yachtmaster - i think they should bring back the yellow gold white dial version. I hope you manage to get the pateks you are after. I would love one.
It's a great watch in all respects, I own the previous model. Stealth wealth, absolutely. Full gold - no ceramic bezel, no glass case back - which is just what I wanted. My AD said it was the first full White Gold he had in 5 yrs - much rarer than the SS models. The weight, the quality, the comfort - everything is perfect (in my opinion). My other full gold watch is the VC 222 - I suggest you take a look at one when considering your next watch. Enjoy wearing the Daytona.
4:58 (I am Swiss living in Geneva) You are lucky because "new" (over 1 year) policy in Geneva is that the white tag is kept by the AD. So it is rare now.
Interesting. Very strange. In the US, over the last six years, I have always been able to keep the white hangtag. Except for one occasion (When I got the Submariner as a walk-in, on the same day.)
@@sc1 I have often see policies "tested" in Geneva and then deployed globally if validated. It was the case for bracelet exchange (gmt), dial change for DD, etc. Not a hard rule. But I suspect that white tag will be a thing of the past, so keep them safe. :) Take care.
It will need to be some stupendous New Release in 2025 in order to change my mind! My current Daytonas are excellent. Same with the GMT Master II, Submariner, and Day-Date. Enjoy what I have, and hope for one more Patek Philippe.
@S C can you compare it to your oysterflex to describe if you personally prefer it on an oyster bracelet or oysterflex band comfort, practicality and lookwise and do you have an email where i can write to?
@@sc1 Haha based on the hour markers I knew it was SS or WG and I've been following you long enough to know the regular Daytona wouldn't really move you. But the full gold piece is beautiful and the updated reference is really refined. Very nice.
That looks great! This video really changed my outlook on rolex white gold. However, I dont think I would ever have the courage to wear gold since scratches bother me so much.
I wear the Gold with long sleeves, so it is mostly protected. That said, I just discovered a small scuff on my yellow gold Daytona. No idea how it got there! But even with the scratches, it is totally worth it. Meant to be worn.
Love it. Im much more interested in the precious metal Daytonas then the current steel models. Biggest issue for me is that I live in a city right now people are getting watches. So any Rolex or AP is a problem
@@sc1I don't like to stress about my watch. I need to admire it in the corner of my eye. That's why I carefully select. Cool to see someone else's watch journey. ❤
Not really. The Blue Dial did not appeal to me, for some reason. I like other blues, such as the Datejust and WG GMT Master-II. Anyway, I am committed to buying New, from the AD, and not from the grey market.
I must say, this white gold watch beats the yellow gold Paul Newman…it’s stunning!! I do feel that you HAVE TO get the Platona next! I’m on the list for a Paul Newman myself.
Congrats yet another excellent choice. You have all the great pieces you wanted, I think you should collect fountain pens now ?👌🏽lol I can’t have a watch in my collection without a matching fountain pen 🖋️
Yes, my new incoming watches will drastically slow down. I'm still enjoying the fountain pen that I picked up from the Lamy store in my last NYC video. I've been pushed to think that a massive, thick, Mont Blanc fountain pen is more desirable, but this thin, svelte, slight pen is a refreshing change. Notebooks are another interest for me, even electronic reMarkable note books. For fountain pens, Lamy is my favorite, then Mont Blanc.
As always great video and lovely watch. Never say Never, Rolex Perpetual 1908 Platinum might be a consideration but i think you need a Vacheron Overseas dual time especial if you travel, blue dial :)
beautiful watch, enjoy it in good health! would you take this over the discontinued 116509 blue dial? love the changes they made with the new 126 range of daytonas, but that blue dial was gorgeous. do you think they will add new dials to the 126 range in the upcoming years?
Your entire collection is very well curated overall but I would humbly suggest some changes. I would sell the new Sub, the yellow gold Daytona and the new Explorer and replaced them with your own pre-ceramic Sub, your first Datejust and the Day-Date from the bottom row. You would have almost an entire Rolex lineup, both neo vintage and modern, including steel, white and yellow gold watches. With all of them looking great on your wrist size wise. This would also left one cushion vacant at the Patek row 😜
That is a thought. Something to consider. My 16610 and 16200 are sitting in another box, sentimental, never to leave. If I ever acquire another Patek, I will need to sell something. Perhaps the 124060 or 124270, but it would be a shame to give up an extra everyday, all-around steel watch.
I am working towards a Nautilus, but as I still get no further response, my hope is getting dimmer over time. My Vacheron representative reached out to me for a special piece, so I might end up purchasing that one instead.
@@sc1 sounds exciting, I would love to add one Vacheron as well. Within the next 2 weeks I can hopefully show my last purchase. It is not a Patek btw. 😅
It’s nice no doubt . I’ve not bought anything for around 2 years . Asked myself when do you say to yourself enough is enough . Have 10 most of them are in a vault and just have no real motivation to wear them . I had got in to a habit of buying expensive watches because I could and never paused to contemplate whether my purchases were actually enhancing my life in any way . I eventually came to the conclusion the more I bought the less I enjoyed . For me watches are like chocolate cake , too many and we soon become sick . It’s very easy to buy for the sake of buying and not enjoyment.
Congratulations very nice..some how I don’t think this will be your last rolex purchase look forward to seeing your next acquisition wear your pieces in good health 👌🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Great video. Check out the blue 7920V….absolutely love mine and it stands out from the sea of Rolex’s in my collection and would compliment the PP well.
I like the black dial better. It has more contrast with the white gold case and bracelet. They call the other one “steel and bright black” dial. I tried on a pre-owned version, and it looked too monochromatic. Also previously owned a steel Datejust with silver dial, same thing there, too monochromatic.
Do you feel that this White gold black dial looks too similar to the old stainless steel pre ceramic 116520 model, and therefore not worth the extra price point?
@@sprocketdog6303 They both look very similar on a superficial level, excepting that the White Gold version has solid subdials. That is a positive, but beyond that, the White Gold version FEELS different on the wrist. It is heavier and feels more solid. It feels more premium. More luxurious. That alone makes it worth the extra money. I care less about how it looks to other people, than how it feels to me, wearing it regularly on the wrist.
@@sprocketdog6303 I was never offered the Steel Panda Daytona, and never asked for it specifically (knowing that it is so hard to get). If it was offered to me at retail, I would certainly buy it, for its value proposition, but it is not worth the grey market price. I would never buy it on the grey market. Comparing it to the full White Gold Daytona, regardless of price, I think the white gold Daytona is still a better watch, objectively. Same movement, but with solid subdials, and the 18k gold adds that extra weight and solidity that steel can never provide.
Deep down in your heart - do you really believe this is your final Rolex purchase? I definitely believe you'll replace some Rolex with Patek/VC but it looks like Rolex has a special place in your heart. Also love the "there's a textbook written at the 12 o'clock" gave me a good chuckle --- amazing watch and videos!
That is an absolutely stunning piece of industrial design, and whilst the design is purely functional, it results in an aesthetic that stands alone as sculpture It's just cool. Also, the choice of metal, and the absence of a ceramic bezel, is a key component of the look. Further, what is the point of a PM watch with a ceramic bezel anyway? Think about it, you go to some considerable effort to get the PM aesthetic...and then you bury that under a ceramic; why would you do that?
You're not just paying for the gold. You are buying into the design and aesthetic that they formed from the raw gold. Every detail of design was meticulously thought over. Resulting in a Masterpiece.
@sc1 At this level, the metal performance and aesthetics are everything, and the fact that the metal is precious is simply an artefact. This is a seriously beautiful machine profoundly imbued with cultural value.
@@sc1 Indeed, and congrats on the new daytona, love how the WG combines subtle warmth with an understated elegance. It really has a stealthy presence on your wrist that draws the eye without being flashy-it's the perfect blend of sophistication and style😀
What is your opinion? Between the white Gold 126509 Daytona with the black dial, or the 126500LN White dial panda stainless steel? if you were to only get one, which do you think is best?
@@sprocketdog6303 Depends. If both are at retail, I would probably go for the stainless steel for the better value. If the steel is on the Grey Market, no question, I would get the white gold. If I am blind to price, I would go for the white gold.
The reason your yellow gold Daytona does not have ceramic sleeves is because it's not the new model. The previous generation did not have the sleeves. Also white gold is more expensive from Rolex due to palladium content added to make the alloy. It's also the reason rose gold everose is more expensive as well due to platinum content added to stabilize the color
I have heard directly from another viewer that his previous version Everose Gold Daytona 116505, DOES have the ceramic sleeves. Yet I can verify that my Yellow Gold 116508 does NOT have the ceramic sleeves. My GMT Master-II 126719 from 2021 and YG Day-Date from 2021 both have white ceramic sleeves. I cannot understand why they excluded my YG Daytona from 2022.
Great white gold purchase SC! You can never have enough Rolexes! Incredible collection! Bought a white gold piece myself recently and its heft on the wrist is the clearest signal. Better no one else knows it😂 ….and no, you are not done with Rolex, we never are😂😂. Wait till next year’s WaW
The non-ceramic look of the bezel makes it much more classy. I just love it 💕 Congratulations 🍾
Congratulations on your latest acquisition it is more discrete than your YG Daytona
You are the best enabler out there!
If you ever do visit the UK, keep me in mind
What a watch collection 👌 🔥💕
It is so much nicer than the stainless steel black. Having a proper contrasting sub-dial changes the watch drastically for the better.
Solid subdials make a huge difference.
Probably my favourite video of yours yet. Clear to the point and a great insight to your journey. Never say never with Rolex but i think you have the best version of every model, apart from maybe a yachtmaster - i think they should bring back the yellow gold white dial version.
I hope you manage to get the pateks you are after. I would love one.
I've been back and forth on my thinking about the Yachtmaster. If they made the titanium version in 39-40mm, I would love that.
I love the warm tone and it's just a beautiful watch. Congrats.
It's utterly beautiful and the white gold just gives it real class.
The yellow and white gold daytonas could be a two-watch solution. Excellent addition. Congratulations!
