Old man's watch

[pegasi]

Aha, I thought yours is a RG. The pic that show the whole watch looks more RG than YG.

Beautiful Daytona

I have never seen any old man wearing gold daytona (or whatever daytona), only gold DD or 6694 usually. So if you want an old man watch please sell your daytona cheap cheap to me and buy one of the mentioned.

Saw on TV before this Chinese singer 那英 wearing a similar RG Daytona but don't remember what dial it was.

Thank you for your kind words!

Then I am the first old man to wear such a YG Daytona!

My urge to get a GOLD watch is due to my age and the gold Daytona (instead of other gold watches) is due to Victoria Beckham wearing a Everrose Daytona (think is pink dial)!!

I think for full gold u have so many nice dials to choose from!

So is the Panda consider a nice dial? I'm loving it a bit more everyday!

Yo champagneluver n t28, i also keen on hulk n panda daytona. Think most likely gonna buy when i visit uk in jan.

U guys happen to know good places there for watches? Even though i really wanna get the panda daytona but i think i may end up playing safe buying a hulk first since its cheaper

I never buy from overseas before, can't help there. I think there're abt 3 pre-owned panda dial Daytona ard for sale, 1 in WG and 2 half gold.

So you like this "panda" combo? How is the readability in bright day lit?

I was wanting to get the "black with champagne sub dials" version. But this "creamy metallic white" dial looks more interesting. Lets see whether I will keep this or exchange it for the black dial.

Yah I find this panda look unique cos the half gold models seldom see this dial, and usually the numbers dial are only found on full gold models. Such a complicated dial with gold hands does makes telling time slower but I get to enjoy the beauty of the dial longer. I remember feeling like telling time was secondary, admiring the beauty was primary.

Bro eastsider, maybe the 3 of us can buy together to ask for a better discount! But I don't think it will be easy as most sellers are selling it at a premium.

You may want to check with fellow bros in the forum regarding buying in UK. I was in UK in early July but it is not cheap at all!

I tried Cambridge, London and Frankfurt airport. All don't offer discount (for 116528 and 116610LV) and with only currency exchange & VAT rebate, it is not worth getting at all.

But they do have many popular models like AP ROOs, IWC big pilot, IWC Portuguese Perpetual Calendar, etc.

Good luck to your watch hunting!

upgrade from half gold to full gold!

Gold gold gold!

Yeah!

You bros are poisonous!!!!

Yes, GOLD! GOLD! GOLD!!!!!

It is indeed a creamy champagne colored dial. I had the half gold version with that same dial. Loved that dial n it was a struggle to sell it for the Day-Date. But no regrets at all, cos mine was only half gold...

stunning photos and watch! thanks for sharing.

Thanks and glad you like it!

Very impressed with what yr GF1 came out with! For cheap macro shots, I use the ollo clip-on with my iPhone... No where near this effect!

Hulk u mean the 116610LV? Or the old 50th anni 16610LV? I don't think I got my 16610LV good price....

Thanks again! I guess the light was just right as being a M4/3, low light condition is a challenge.

Hulk aka 116610LV. I am now more adventurous with colours I guess.

Haha so Rolex is still right to call this "white dial" though its creamy!!

I actually wanted the black with champagne sub dials, but my wife said this is better looking! I am still not decided though.
