Legend Posted December 27, 2016 Report Posted December 27, 2016 Some of you may know I lived and breathed AP. I did. And I have no regrets about that part of my journey. But under the influence of some friends@blackboxes@mike on a bike@nanuq, my love and appreciation for Rolex began and I suspect that it's the terminal stop in my search for the perfect watch. I have always wanted a daytona with a ceramic bezel and when one became available, I took the plunge and snapped it up. Yes this is the less loved black variant but I find myself growing to love it the more I see it. Guys, I present my 116500LN Daytona. To quote macdonalds, I'm lovin' it!Resting in boxA slightly closer lookOn the wrist. So much details...Resting next to his enraged brother. I tread softly along the fine line separating raving insanity and lucid moments of ingenuity. The issue is I've no idea which is which mostly.
QueTip Posted December 27, 2016 Report Posted December 27, 2016 Looks great brother! I always told you Wear her in good health! I honestly prefer the black on black version over the Panda too.
astonjenks Posted December 27, 2016 Report Posted December 27, 2016 Looks great Alvin! I remember paying £7000 for a white faced Daytona a few years ago as a present for my Accountant! AJ
Sogeha Posted December 27, 2016 Report Posted December 27, 2016 Looks great and since black is less loved while they are for sale new, guess which will be most collectible in future. 1
Mike on a bike Posted December 27, 2016 Report Posted December 27, 2016 Now your talking! That looks great on you.
Legend Posted December 27, 2016 Author Report Posted December 27, 2016 Thanks guys. I really like the black on black. I do acknowledge that the watch is overpriced but heck love is irrational! I tread softly along the fine line separating raving insanity and lucid moments of ingenuity. The issue is I've no idea which is which mostly.

Nanuq Posted December 27, 2016 Report Posted December 27, 2016 Welcome....... to the Dark Side She's a beauty, and that black on black will wind up being the winning combination years from now. Subtle elegance never goes out of style.
sacsah1 Posted December 28, 2016 Report Posted December 28, 2016 Wow bro!!!Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk
mjmj Posted December 28, 2016 Report Posted December 28, 2016 Very nice bro. looks great on your wrist.
droptopman Posted December 28, 2016 Report Posted December 28, 2016 Awesome . Huge congrats on a tough to get model. I prefer the white dial with metal bezel but prefer the black with ceramic. Great choice
sacsah1 Posted December 28, 2016 Report Posted December 28, 2016 They say great minds think alike I'm sorry but white dial is boring. This black on black is hot!!Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk 1

Nanuq Posted January 1, 2017 Report Posted January 1, 2017 Hey AJ, I can add 2+2 so let's have a Daytona coming this way. Black please.
Sogeha Posted January 1, 2017 Report Posted January 1, 2017 The kind of accountant that deserves a Rolex from a customer is the one who can make 2+2 = 1 when it is the taxman's share and 7 when it is my share. There are accountants that can make that totally legal even though mathematically improbable. Just saying like :-)
