Rolex Cosmograph Daytona Review Part 2

[@robbie50302]

Good informative video for those interested in Daytona. I wear my 2002 bi metal steel dial Daytona daily for 17 years and as you say they look great when matching a wedding ring. In my opinion a matching watch and ring are the only two pieces of jewellery a man needs in order to look classy. The sound investment of a Daytona is also a bonus.

[@369168]

It's a great watch. A little underrated since everyone is jonesing for the stainless steel version. thanks for watching

[@369168]

All the watches in my videos are mine. the videos were also produced by me. The entire purpose of my channel is to share my interest in watches, and hopefully have some interesting comments / discussion about them.

[@Ram-jw9ry]

Thank you for the video! Very informative. I would just add that the vertical clutch allows you to constantly have the chronograph running without it damaging the watch or causing any wear and tear over time. Thanks again! I’m getting this bad boy by the end of the month. I can’t wait!!

[@369168]

Yes, with the vertical clutch you can run the chronograph constantly without damaging the mechanism. I'm glad you found the video informative, and thank you for viewing :)

[@arabbit9396]

Just stumbled across this review and I gotta say it’s very detailed and I thoroughly enjoyed it! 🙌

[@369168]

i'm glad you enjoyed it ! happy holidays !

[@Dunkaroos248]

What a great watch, it looks like Rolex gave all the bells and whistles to this piece that are only now beginning to be integrated into the rest of their line. This is truly a grail piece for many WIS's.

[@SandDancer2001]

Thanks for your informative review; just bought this same model (beautiful pre owned 2010) and this has been very helpful. Merry Christmas and a happy New Year!

[@369168]

glad your enjoying your Daytona. thanks for watching and have a safe and happy holiday !!

[@Hydra_Trades]

Nice review bro Do you still have the watch ? Why dont you make any new videos ?

[@369168]

Also the watch in this video was purchased from an authorized dealer in Manhattan.

[@nunomc2815]

In motorsport, the bezel is graduated in km/h and corresponds to the time a vehicle can run 400 meters/quarter mile, and the resding on the bezel will give the average speed, Just need to have the sproximate ideia of the space 1/4 mile straight occupies on the track.

[@bwcastillo]

But what happens if the hammer machine takes longer than a minute to create one unit?

[@TheEnglishRedneck45]

Highly informative, as is your usual standard! Thank you.

[@secretariat783]

If I may ask, personally, which do you prefer for a Two Tone Daytona, the White or the Panda Dial? And why? The reason on why I'm asking is because I am kinda confused between a White or Panda Dial Rolex Daytona. Thanks.

[@MrVoayer]

Great watch and unpretentious review ! Well done !

[@punishergaming8669]

Hello I have this one but on back it has written winner 24 so do you know the price of the watch

[@369168]

thanks so much for watching, glad you enjoyed the video :)

[@hl2mukkel]

Great Review! Thanks for this very clear and understandable explantation.

[@secretariat783]

If I may ask, in what year was the Two Tone Daytona above made? Are there any differences between the Daytonas made from 2000 to 2004 and to the Daytonas made after 2004 to the present? Do all Daytonas from 2000 come with the Easylink 5 mm Extension link on the clasp of their bracelets? Thanks.

[@369168]

+Secretariat My Daytona is a "Y" series would be 2002. I believe that sometime afterwards, beginning with the "F" series (?) the hands and indices were made a little thicker to improve legibility. These new thcker hands are sometimes referred to as "fat" hands. As far as the bracelet is concerned I think all the 4130 Daytonas have the Easlylink adjustment.

[@secretariat783]

+NO BULLS**T WRISTWATCH REVIEWS Would you know on what year did they start using the Blue Parachrom spring with the Daytona? Wasn't it some time in 2005? I believe, before that they were using a Gray Parachrom pring with the Daytona when it first came out in 2000. Anyway, what is so special about the Parachrom spring? And lastly, what are the advantages of the Blue Parachrom spring over the Gay one? Is there a big difference between the Blue and the Black? Thanks.

[@369168]

+Secretariat The first Parachrom harisprings were grey, and then in 2005 Rolex made them blue. The Parachrom hairsprings are supposed to be highly antimagnetic . No difference between the gray and blue AFAIK.

[@369168]

one of the things I like the best about this watch is that it's Rolex's 1st in house chronograph movement, and an excellent one at that. thats for watching :)

[@MrHank475]

At first it’s seemed like the minute hand on the chronograph wasn’t going to move lmao . The chronolograph turn exactly at a minute . Cool watch review brother💯

[@369168]

thanks so much and thanks for watching :)

[@peterjg]

Great review, awesome watch. Really enjoyed it. Thanks!

[@369168]

Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed it :)

[@secretariat783]

Why do some people prefer the movement of the Rolex modified El Primero Zenith( 4030) over the newer Rolex In House( 4130)? What is there in the Rolex modified El Primero Zenith( 4030) movement that these people love? Thanks.

[@369168]

+Secretariat good question....from every tech standpoint the 4130 is the superior movement but the preference for Daytona with Zenith movements could involve such intangibles as collectibility, a respect for history, etc.

[@secretariat783]

+NO BULLS**T WRISTWATCH REVIEWS How much better in the new Daytona to the old? Thanks.

[@369168]

+Secretariat chrono hand doesn't jump when its activated , longer power reserve, less parts, easier to service

[@aviralgurung3242]

I've same one but it's not in working condition could you help me to check my watch whether it's real or fake??? please reply me back if you can.❤

[@369168]

Did you get it from an Authorized Dealer ?

Informative, very well explained and easy to understand. Thank you.

Whats its excact price???

Great review and nice presentation Thanks. what camera did you use the quality is crystal clear and always focussed.

[@cuedeecakes6958]

Good review of the Daytona and love the cool NYC accent!

[@369168]

but what part of NYC Haha ??? thanks for watching !

[@369168]

thanks for watching part 2 of this video, as you can see from my other videos, I don't break down my reviews in 2 parts but I felt that the Daytona movement and operation were worth talking about in greater detail...:)

[@romangrom6853]

Excellent review. Congrats.

[@KTMcaptain]

TT plays second fiddle because it's twice as expensive. people are far less likely to purchase. with that said, I'm in love with the blue dial 18k white gold Daytona, but I have a TT 18k datejust already. I was considering the omega, but after your demo and touching a Daytona today I'll not venture that way.

[@369168]

My feelings about TT are mixed. Depends on the watch. Although the TT Daytona is second fiddle to the SS version I still find it attractive and was able to negotiate a nice discount. Unless your going to go grey market try waiting years to get a SS one. The only TT watches in the Rolex lineup I would ever consider is the Daytona (obviously) and the DJ.

[@diggintheblueswithaparrot1329]

Why does it play second fiddle to the SS...please elaborate

[@KTMcaptain]

Diggin the blues with a parrot I explained in my OP.

[@badapple4228]

Another question is that mine is the daytona winners & when I push the pusher above the crown it sets the position of the subdial at 9 and the bottom one sets the hands at 3 . No stopwatch . How's that possible . & I've seen that the ones with the machanism that's in my watch have date & day .

[@369168]

The only function of the pusher above the crown (ie 2 o' clock) is to start and stop the chronograph.

[@369168]

The only function of the pusher below the crown (ie 4 o' clock) is to reset the chronograph to the 12 o ' clock position (after you've stopped the chrono hand with the pusher above the crown.

[@СашаМакаренко-э1х]

Wish we had bought one sooner.

[@369168]

thanks so much. I want my videos to be as fun and informative to watch as possible.

[@ph1lo]

does this watch not automatically wind (self wind), or do you have to hand wind it?

[@369168]

you hand wind it first to get the mainspring at full power then as long as its worn you won't have to wind it. thanks for watching

[@Ggma8989]

Nice review man, i appreciate your comprehensive knowledge and detailed descriptions. I currently own a submariner 16613LB (my first Rolex watch), which Daytona would you suggest? Budget is not a big prob here Thanks

[@369168]

thanks for your kind words. which Daytona? how about the new one with the ceramic bezel. i'm currently on 2 waiting lists and there are probably lots of people ahead of me. thanks for watching !

[@Ggma8989]

alright thanks bro!!

[@369168]

you're welcome !

[@samadrid6321]

My suggestion - get one of the steel either black dial or white, but get the newer bracelet with the easy link adjustment. It's the same bracelet in the current ceramic model. Anything newer than 2010. I just got a 2010 black dial, steel bezel, and I absolutely can't get enough of it. Great beauty of a watch. I had a 2016 YachtMaster that I traded and both the newer YachtMaster and the 2010 Daytona have the same great bracelet. When I traded the dealer had a 2004 white dial, and I took his advice and took the newer watch. He was asking only five hundred less for the older Daytona. The bracelet was the selling point. The ceramic Daytona is too long waiting list, and if you can find one from a private seller he or she is gonna want fifty percent or more over retail. You're looking at twelve thousand from an AD, you're looking at fifteen, eighteen or even twenty thousand from a private seller. Forget that. Get an older steel made after year 2000. They're going for between eight thousand up to twelve which is a bit much.

[@369168]

In answer to a viewer's ques. about what happens if the hammer takes more than 1 minute to make....at some point you will have to do some mental math. for example: 1 min/hammer = 60 hammers or units/hr) 2 min/hammer = 30 hammers or units/hr.

I have a $100 Invicta Speedway that looks identical. No thanks. I'll keep my $17K in a simple stock index fund. As far as value, as in the past, I'll do much better than Rolex owners.

[@PickWithAustin]

Why not do both? :P

[@KTMcaptain]

When you leave your low yield and taxed profits to your children after you pass they'll think of you now and again, while my kids will think of me everyday they wear it. Somethings are special, but I generally agree that you should invest in your future before your jeweler.

[@saturninkepa4915]

Yes you will, but you will not know what it means to own a Rolex. Just as a Corvette owner will never feel the the joy of a Ferrari. Yes there are cheaper options to everything. A Ginsu 2000 instead of a Henkel, in the end you always get what you pay for.

[@nickv4073]

@@saturninkepa4915 What it means? Its a watch. It tells time. Thats all it does. I dont need a Rolex to feel better about myself. There are multi millionnaires who wear $20 Casios. Those are the guys I respect.

[@saturninkepa4915]

@@nickv4073 You came to the Rolex Review video, I didn't come to a Casio review video to say I don't respect you for wearing a Casio. Nothing wrong with Casio, as a watch collector, I have a few of them. You asked what it was in Rolex that people see, and I tried my best to explain to you... but it seems that is not what you are looking for, you want to win some sort of argument and say that we are fools for liking these watches. Well the reality is that there is a supply and demand to watches, and the reason Rolex is as expensive as it is, is because there are a lot of people that want them and only so many are made every single year. Now you can look at a Rolex after 50 years, one from the 70's and they are pristine, often working perfectly without needing service. You are not going to find that in a cheap watch. Omega, are not cheap watches, yet when you look at a 50 year old Omega, suddenly you start to see flaws of age, you realize that the parts that it is composed of are not as well thought out as that of Rolex, hence a typical Rolex tends to fetch many times more than an Omega. Now as for you respecting CEO's that wear Casio, and only them... tells me that you do not respect bill gates, or warren buffet, or 95% of the others who don't mind spending a few bucks on a nice watch. There are many reasons for this, for one people find watches to be personal items that are always with them. They are not just time. Just like a chain around your neck is not just a chain around your neck, it may be sentimental to you. It might be a graduation present from your dad, a gift from your company for working 25 years of loyalty. There are many reasons why people see watches as more than just instruments of time. Just as clothes are more than just garments to keep you warm. There is a whole industry from style, and fit to cloth, and the presentation that it makes to others. I don't know how old you are, perhaps you are autistic and these are not things that are easily understood but there are reasons why people value watches and why some see them as jewelry or statement or why some want to spend more money and pay for quality that they can pass on from generation to generation. I bet you have never owned an expensive watch in your life, and hence can not relate to this, so to act like the rest of us who have done so are not to be respected because we are fools for doing so seems a little juvenile to me. Again, this is a Rolex review, I did not come to your Casio review to tell you that your watch sucks and Rolex is better, you came here to something I am interested in and started talking out of your ass without the necessary pre thought or experience. In my case, I own a bunch of watches and I own index funds, and real estate and farms, and run a business... your respect is not important to me, but I did try to help you understand that everyone has their reasons for paying such exorbitant prices for Rolex, some of these folks do so to impress, others because they themselves feel good to know that they own a piece of a legendary company that has pioneered the industry in timepieces that hold up for multiple generations. I personally own one Rolex, a Daytona, and prefer Grand Seiko which sells for a lot cheaper than Rolex and in my opinion provides just as much class and craftsmanship.... but I still bought a Rolex Daytona because I know that after I am done wearing it, my loved ones can sell it for exactly what I paid for it, or maybe more. Which with Rolex is not that unusual. Hence instead of keeping my money in cash, I can have something that I enjoy and always have with me even if I am in a predicament. In WW2 folks traded for papers and access through borders for fine Swiss movements. Sometimes banks fail, sometimes cash becomes worthless, sometimes you get to keep only what is on your person. In those cases, I sure as fuck am glad I was wearing a Rolex.
