mir36 Posted November 17, 2011 Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 (edited) I've been reading up quite a bit on all the excellent Daytona posts here and after months of resistance, finally sent a mail to Spinmaster asking him to please build me an iconic Daytona. Here is the result: I've seen pics of the gens with dials still white as snow, however I must admit I love the 'tropicalized' (?) effect Spin achieved on the dial. The watch has all the usual Spin upgrades (gen crystal, tube and crown), quality control touches and runs like a COSC champ. Color-wise, the pic below is a very accurate take of what the dial looks like in real life... I realize quite a bit of upgrades are still required to take this to the next OCD level (bracelet, pushers, softening the case edges under the crown, etc.). However I'm really enjoying this just as it is. Thanks for looking and a final question to the experts: Did the exotic dial come in any other colors which are available in the rep world? P.S. @ ZK, looking forward to seeing your vintagized PN. Edited November 17, 2011 by mir36 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lhooq Posted November 17, 2011 Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 Nice one, mir36! Did the exotic dial come in any other colors which are available in the rep world? Depending on which Italian expert you speak to, there were also two red variants of the PN: White subdials on red and black subdials on red. Bona fides of both types are still in dispute. Both dials may still be available from DW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freddy333 Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 I think you need a more accurate bezel with that watch (compare the spacing of 110 to a gen or good franken ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
